Trigger an APS workflow from a rule

jose_leon_coupa — Thu, 04 Jun 2020 09:02:05 GMT

Is it possible to trigger an APS process from a rule? I need to start an APS workflow when a new document is uploaded in a specific folder.

Thanks.

Hi @jose_leon_coupa,

Is this what you are thinking of? However, I see in the ACS 6.2 documentation there is an additional Start Process action called by a rule, a new feature added in ACS 6.2.1.
