Display workflow starter in form

[isshin]

Hi,
I am very new to alfresco and I am trying to display the user that started a workflow in a task form.

Is there a way to do it in the form definition the same way a taskOwner is displayed?

Hi

You can define a new property in your workflow model (e.g: "wf_username"), read "initiator.properties.userName" and assign it to the property:

In javascript:

executionContext.setVariable("wf_username",initiator.properties.userName);

But I think you can't do it in the start state, you have to do it when the workflow has been created.
