Example:

Let’s build and execute the “renameFormInstanceDef” example.          

  • Create a new definition called “renameFormInstanceDef” and open it in Designer mode.
  • Drag the "instantiateForm, renameFormInstance" steps to the canvas
  • Connect the dots between the “Start” and the other steps, as shown above.
  • Declare a variable or a global to store the Form Instance ID.
  • Click the “instantiateForm” step to configure its “Required” properties. Provide a name for the step. Select a Form Definition from the drop-down list. Specify a variable or a global to store the Form Instance ID. Then click the Save button. Note: Click the "AI Predict" button to have Copilot add new process steps that match your process description. 

 

  • Click the “renameFormInstance” step to configure its “Required” properties. Provide a name for the step. Provide the variable or global reference that contains the Form Instance ID. Provide a new name for the Form Instance. Click the Save button. Note: Click the "AI Predict" button to have the Copilot add new process steps that match your process description. 

 

  • The “Logging” configuration is necessary for documentation and also measures workflow progress and percent complete. This is achieved by configuring the step state and percent fields individually, as shown in the images below. Configure the “Logging” using the following properties.

 

  • Save the process definition, create a new instance, execute it, and then render the process instance. This step should rename the Form Instance.
