Wiring Actions Wire each node from the output to the input connection points Mapping Connection PointsInput Connection (available data or user action) map onto the Connection Point in order to pass data to the Actionflow. - Drag the Input Connection's "Output Connector" onto the required Connection Point.
- The mapping window opens.
- Drag the attributes from the Input Connection (Left) onto the Connection Point (Right)
- Ensure the type of data is the same i.e. we cannot map a text field onto a date field as they are not compatible.
- Create Target Attributes (Optional): drag an attribute on the left to the white space on the right, this will automatically create an attribute of the same name and type.
- Confirm the mapping. Now the "Output Connector" will be blue to indicate it has been mapped .
- Repeat these steps for any additional mappings required.
Building an Actionflow Not sure if we just add the mapping into here?Data flows through the Actionflow sequentially one stream-item at a time. When a lookup is performed the entire data set is read and processed. - Connect Inputs to Input Connection Points
- Create new Input Connection Points
- Drag inputs into the white space below the input connection points to create a new one.
- Provide a name.
- Complete the mappings and confirm.
Click on the to create new connection points - Provide a name.
- Drag Inputs onto the new Input Connecting Point.
- complete mappings and confirm.
- Add Action Nodes
- Click and hold on the desired Action Node, now drag this onto the canvas area.
- Click and hold on the Input Connection, when release a set of action nodes is displayed, select the desired option.
- This process also works from existing Action Nodes.
- Connecting
- From Input Connection : Click and hold on the input Connection, move the mouse over the desired node and select the input connection point.
- check - You will only be prompted to select an input connections if there is more than one input connection point e.g. a dashboard or the connection point is already connected.
- Acton Nodes: Click and hold on the Output Connection Point of the Action Node, move the mouse over the input connection of the desired action node and release the mouse.
- Mapping, once a connection is made a mapping screen will open automatically. As described above click and drag the attributes on the left to create a mapping:
- On to an attribute on the right.
- Into the blank space to create an attribute and mapping automatically.
- Configuring the nodes as described in the nodes section above.
- Repeat the above steps to create you desired configuration.
Running an ActionflowActionflows run from by being: - attached to an event such as a Button, a Double Click event on a grid item or any event attached to an item. link to events
- check - started by a task plan.
