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)
and access the value via
outArgs("keyName")
