Hi,
Thanx for the reply. But the code is not working.I am getting the error. When I am selecting "person" it is working as expected.
code for "person"
var workflow = actions.create("start-workflow");
workflow.parameters.workflowName = "jbpm$wf:review";
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDescription"] = document.name;
workflow.parameters["bpm:assignee"] =person;
var futureDate = new Date();
futureDate.setDate(futureDate.getDate() + 7);
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDueDate"] = futureDate;
workflow.execute(document);

for the group
var workflow = actions.create("start-workflow");
workflow.parameters.workflowName = "jbpm$wf:review";
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDescription"] = document.name;
var approveUsers=groups.getGroup("Group_DEVELOPER");
workflow.parameters["bpm:assignee"] =approveUsers;
var futureDate = new Date();
futureDate.setDate(futureDate.getDate() + 7);
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDueDate"] = futureDate;
workflow.execute(document);

NOTE: I am having a group called "Group_DEVELOPER" in alfresco.
I am getting the below error
A system error happened during the operation: 07030003 Failed to execute script 'workspace://SpacesStore/8359491b-afa2-426e-97f8-4cff5462af09': 07030002 Failed to signal transition 'null' from workflow task 'jbpm$107' when I upload a document in Out of Box. I checked the error in log.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
Now the error is gone but the workflow is not getting initiated.

I have the below js code(This gets executed when a content is added to the space)

var workflow = actions.create("start-workflow");
workflow.parameters.workflowName = "jbpm$wf:review";
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDescription"] = document.name;
var approveUsers=groups.getGroup("Group_DEVELOPER");
workflow.parameters["bpm:groupAssignee"] =approveUsers;
var futureDate = new Date();
futureDate.setDate(futureDate.getDate() + 7);
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDueDate"] = futureDate;
workflow.execute(document);

I am executing the Approve/reject workflow. So when the content is uploaded the workflow is not initiated.
Please provide me your thoughts.

Thanx in adv.

Hi friend,
You can get all member in group then use bpm_assignee normal:


var members = people.getMembers(people.getGroup("GROUP_DEVELOPER"));
‍‍‍

You can loop Array members normal

good luck

Hi vinaxwater,

Thanx for the reply.
Below is my code

var workflow = actions.create("start-workflow");
workflow.parameters.workflowName = "jbpm$wf:review";
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDescription"] = document.name;
var members = people.getMembers(people.getGroup("GROUP_DEVELOPER"));
workflow.parameters["bpm:assignee"] =members;
var futureDate = new Date();
futureDate.setDate(futureDate.getDate() + 7);
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDueDate"] = futureDate;
workflow.execute(document);

But I am getting the below error.
A system error happened during the operation: 07050025 Failed to execute script 'workspace://SpacesStore/0ac35339-64a4-4f39-8e63-9911cb89aa5b': Group is a mandatory parameter

Can you please provide me the solution.If possible share me any doc related to this API.

Thanx in adv.

Hi friend,

please check hard code for view your workflow action normal with below code!


var workflow = actions.create("start-workflow");
workflow.parameters.workflowName = "jbpm$wf:review";
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDescription"] = document.name;

workflow.parameters["bpm:assignee"] = "admin";

var futureDate = new Date();
futureDate.setDate(futureDate.getDate() + 7);
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDueDate"] = futureDate;
workflow.execute(document);
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

if it's work fine then change with this code:


var workflow = actions.create("start-workflow");
workflow.parameters.workflowName = "jbpm$wf:review";
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDescription"] = document.name;
var members = people.getMembers(people.getGroup("GROUP_DEVELOPER"));
for(int i = 0; i < members.length; i++) {
logger.log(members.get(i)); //print out log in catalina.out
workflow.parameters["bpm:assignee"] = members.get(i);
var futureDate = new Date();
futureDate.setDate(futureDate.getDate() + 7);
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDueDate"] = futureDate;
workflow.execute(document);
}

goodluck

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. I checked, everything is fine.But when I use the below code I am still not able to finish my job. Again I have the same error as described above.

var workflow = actions.create("start-workflow");
workflow.parameters.workflowName = "jbpm$wf:review";
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDescription"] = document.name;
var members = people.getMembers(people.getGroup("GROUP_DEVELOPER"));
for(int i = 0; i < members.length; i++) {
logger.log(members.get(i)); //print out log in catalina.out
workflow.parameters["bpm:assignee"] = members.get(i);
var futureDate = new Date();
futureDate.setDate(futureDate.getDate() + 7);
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDueDate"] = futureDate;
workflow.execute(document);
}
