Overview

One or more conditions can be set to trigger a named event in the workflow.When the named workflow event occurs, the trigger checks that any required condition is met and sets one or more actions.

Conditions

A condition must be met for the trigger to perform the specified action(s). Available conditions are

• "state": "(string value)"

• "final":(boolean true/false)

• "initial": (boolean true/false)

If "final" condition is added together with another condition to an event, the condition is evaluated as an OR function.

The "initial" condition can be constrained to a named state in the workflow using the "state" condition.

Trigger conditions

• Page:
  final condition
• Page:
  initial condition
• Page:
  state condition

One or more workflow triggers can be added to a workflow using the visual editor or the code editor.

Triggers are created in JSON code.

"triggers:"
[
	{"event": "on-change-state",
		"conditions":
		[
			{"state": "Rejected"} ],
		"actions":
		[
			{"action":"set-message", "type":"info", "title":"Hey My Wonderful design and Tech Team", "body":"We have some work to do ... it was rejected!!!"}
		]
	}
]

A workflow trigger can be added to a workflow using the visual editor or the code editor.

 The code editor includes

• color coding to easily distinguish property names, values, and different data types

• autocomplete feature

• dropdown selectors for available property names, including workflow trigger events, conditions, and actions

Example “on-approve" event

"triggers":
[
	{"event": "on-approve",
	"conditions":
	[
		{"state":"Review"}
	],
	"actions":
	[
		{"action":"change-state",
			"state":"Published"}
	]}
]

The trigger action causes a change of state

• "actions":[{ "action":"change-state"}],

The trigger action occurs on the approve event but ONLY if the current state is the Review state

• "conditions":[{"state":"Review"}],
