Usage
This activity is used to create new UBIK® objects during the execution of a workflow. Since it only needs to know the MetaClass to create objects from, it can be used to create regular content objects as well as properties or anything else.
 | This activity does not automatically save changes. If you want to persist the newly created instance, you need i.e. a subsequent SaveObject activity! |
