How Can We Help?

Parameterization

< Back

If you want to pass an information along to a new First Activity one easy way to do it is via parameterization.

Step 1:

Create a submit button in XMDesigner in your activity. Provide an appropriate name and save the activity.

Step 2:

Double click your submit button to open up the Script IDE. Under <your submit button>_OnSubmit, enter the following lines of codes:

string url = String.Format ("{0}/ProcessItem.aspx?g={1}&id={2}&{3}={4}",
<Workspace URL>,
<Process group ID>,
<Activity ID>,
<Name of Control>,
<Value>);
return String.Format("[NavigateTo: {0}]", url);

Where:

<Workspace URL> is the URL of your workspace

  • The URL you connect to

<Process Group ID> is the value of your Process Group’s ID

  • Can be found by opening the Process Group your activity belongs to, clicking your activity, and looking in Properties under Identification for the Parent value.

<Activity ID> is the value of your Activity’s ID

  • Can be found by opening the Process Group your activity belongs to, clicking your activity, and looking in Properties under Identification for the ID value.

<Name of Control> is the name of the control you want to pass a value to

<Value> is the value you want to pass

If you want to pass values to multiple controls, just add an extra &{x}={y} to the end of the first string, as well as the appropriate <Name of Control> and <Value>s at the end of url.

You should end up with something like this:

Step 3:

Save the script and your activity, and you’re done!
