Hi Novulo people,
I’m working on a workflow that automatically creates a sales channel whenever a new business customer is added. So far, this works perfectly—the sales channel is fully created.
Now, I’d like to enhance the workflow by adding an interactive step where the newly created sales channel opens in a new tab, allowing users to cross-check if everything is set up correctly.
Is it possible to configure the workflow to open a new page or tab as part of the process? If so, how can I implement this? I’d love to hear your advice, and a small example would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
Hey Stephan,
It is not (yet) possible to add a pageload to a workflow, as far as I know.
As an alternative, you can add a workflow step “check_sales_channel” of the type “user interaction” with a “continue” button that shows a message like: “Sales channel with id XX has been created. Double check that all data is correct and press continue”.
It is also possible to retrieve all relevant data from the sales channel and put it in the message so that the user does not have to navigate to the sales channel:
"Sales channel with ID XX has been created. Double check that all data is correct and press continue:
Property 1: ABC
Property 2: CDE
… "
You can configure the messages in the workflow transition to the step “check_sales_channel”.
You need a processcall ‘loadpageprocess’'. Then you can use it in your workflows to load pages. At a user interaction step create a button which runs in the foreground. Then add a step (in forground) that uses the loadpageprocess procescall. You will need the id from the page of the integrated model (Architect).
We use this to show a e-mail in a dialog which was created by the workflow. So the user can check it before sending it.
