Usage:

 

 

Example:

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

  • Create a new definition named “clsGetDetailPropertiesDef” and open it in designer mode. 
  • Drag a "clsGetDetailProperties" step to the canvas.
  • Connect the dots between the “Start” and "clsGetDetailProperties" steps, as shown above. 
  • Define a variable or a global to store the result.
  • Click the "clsGetDetailProperties" step to configure its "Required" properties. Provide a name for the step and the item's GUID. Select the item type (task, user, process definition, process instance, form definition, form instance). Then click the Save button. Note: Click the "AI Predict" button to have the Copilot add new process steps that match your process description. 

 

  • Click the button to configure the detailed properties you want to retrieve. A pop-up window opens for configuration. Click the Add Row (+) button to insert an empty row. Enter the column name (property name) from the deUserDetails table. Enter a variable or global reference to store the result after execution. Click the Save button. You can add multiple properties by using the Add Row button. 

 

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

 

  • Save the process definition, create a new instance, and execute it. The process step should retrieve the item detail properties and store them in a variable or a global, as configured.
