Overview
Action nodes, within an Actionflow, can be re-used by converting them into a new Actionflow. The actions in the original Actionflow are transferred to an embedded Actionflow node.
The newly created Actionflow automatically contains:
- input, output and lookup connection points to connections outside of the new Actionflow, e.g. to action nodes and the original Actionflow
- all transferred action nodes
the original attributes, which are mapped to match the original Actionflow setup
Creating a Reusable Actionflow
- To make a reusable Actionflow, select the required action nodes and right-click to choose Extract to new Actionflow
- A new Actionflow is automatically created
- On the original Actionflow, the selected action nodes are replaced with the new embedded Actionflow node - see Actionflow Node
- A new Actionflow is automatically created
Important Considerations:
- All action nodes requiring extraction must be connected
- If a Start Loop Action or End Loop Action is extracted, its corresponding end/start loop must be extracted too
Start Phase actions cannot be included in the extraction
- Any passthrough attributes must be mapped into the original Actionflow
