opics to cover

  • Start with screen with data on it - provided by us
  • The Canvas
    • Tool bar options
      • Show Event Location
      • Close Screen
      • Hide Spinner
      • Origins
      • Instances
      • etc.
  • Conceptual Overview
    • Inputs (for each instance)
    • Connection Points
    • Action Nodes 
      • "The difference between actions that run once per record (single circle around the node)  and those that run once per flow (e.g. open dashboard, start phase, open url ... double circle around the node ) - having written that shouldn't double circle mean more than once and single circle mean once" -David
    • Mappings
      • Mapping data into an actionflow for a specific instance
      • Mapping data between nodes on an action flow
        • Pass-through and Join nodes (only attributes common to all paths leading to the Join can be passed through)
    • Initiating Actionflows
      • Event handlers
        • On click
        • On change
        • On blur
        • On enter
        • Double-click (This is when the actionflow is set as the default action on a view)
        • Default Action for auto save on a view.
    • Instances/Reusability
      • Concepts
      • Locating Instances
      • Opening Instances
      • Actionflows vs instances
      • Nesting actionflows
  •  Connections
    • Inbound
      • No Data = On Click/On Enter
      • Data = Datasource
    • Outbound
    • Lookups (needs example content)
    • Driving vs Lookup connections
      • Driving connections (records are pushed one by one) 
      • Lookup connections (all records are pulled as a single block but only when the connection is referenced in an expression inside the node)
  • Nodes types
    • Actionflow (Nested Actionflow) (needs example content)
    • Open screen
    • View (needs example content)
    • Lookup (needs example content)
    • Calculate 
    • Gateway - map to output connection points (needs example content)
    • Open URL
    • Save
    • Analysis (needs example content) 
    • HTTP (needs example content)
    • Email (needs example content)
    • JSON (needs example content)
    • For Each (needs example content) (intermediate)
    • Loop (needs example content)
    • Funnel (needs example content)
    • Start Phase (needs example content)
      • Exercises to build each node in an actionflow
      • Separate app with completed build in
  • Referencing additional data Start Phase 
    •  Lookups
      • Creating a Lookup
      • Returns a recordset
    • Views
      • Creating Views
      • Returns individual Records
    • Lookups vs Views:
      • The differences
      • When to use each one/ use cases
    • The difference between actions that run once per record (single circle around the node)  and those that run once per flow (e.g. open dashboard, start phase, open url ... double circle around the node ) 
  • Phases
  • Wiring
    • Mapping attributes In and Out
      • Input Parameters: These are needed if you want to use an attribute in a node.
      • Output Attributes
      • Passthrough
      • Mapping data into an actionflow for a specific instance
      • Mapping data between nodes on an action flow
        • Pass-through and Join nodes (only attributes common to all paths leading to the Join can be passed through)
    • Disconnecting
    • Inserting Items
  • Working with structured data 
  • Confirmation dialogues (intermediate)
  • Security and permissions (advanced)
  • Record throughput and behaviours 
  • Exclusion Groups (advanced)
    • Concurrency?
  • Where they can be initiated

Additional Topics (advanced)

  • List all Actionflow and Screen Actionflow. Showing actionflow associated to a screen that are not connected. This occurs when we create actionflows in a workflow.
