on-reject event

Overview

Use the on-reject event in a workflow trigger to listen for an approval reject event and execute one or more trigger actions.

By including a trigger condition, the reject event in a workflow trigger can be constrained to listen for the approval reject event in a named state in the workflow, the workflow final state, or the initial state.

Example “on-reject" event

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

The trigger action causes a change of state

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

The trigger action occurs on the "reject" event, but the added condition means this is ONLY if the current state is the Review state

  • "conditions":[{"state":"Review"}],

This example fast-tracks a change of state when a single reviewer rejects the approval in the Review state.
