Usage
This activity is used to load and invoke workflows from within a workflow. It is very useful to split complex workflows into handy and reusable portions and invoke them from other workflows.
Example
Assign an icon to a given object by invoking the workflow WFICON and passing the object stored in the variable UBIKObject as first and only argument:
| Argument | Value |
|---|---|
| WorkflowName | "WFICON" |
| UBIKObject | Connect this argument with a variable |
| VerboseErrors | True |
| InArguments | New System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary(Of String, object) _ From {{"UBIKObject", UBIKObject}} |
| OutArguments | connect this argument with a variable of type IDictionary(String, object) outArgs("keyName") |
