Get users from the workflow

[pp20218]

Hi,

I am running the advanced workflow automatically from a space. I have the Java script that executes after a content is added to the space. My JS code is as below.

var workflow = actions.create("start-workflow");
workflow.parameters["bpm:assignee"] = person;

Here person stands per the current user. But my requirement is I have to send to a particular user. Consider I have a Group "DEVELOPER" with 5 members in the group.

So how can I get the value of this group("DEVELOPER"); instead of "person"

Thanks
PP

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 friend,
You check again workfow started work fine with start with content. May be that workflow not work

File contain define all parameter in workflow:

alfresco/projects/repository/config/alfresco/model/bpmModel.xml‍

File define file xml workflow:

alfresco/projects/repository/config/alfresco/bootstrap-content.xml‍

File define file control workflow task:

alfresco/projects/repository/config/alfresco/workflow/workflowModel.xml‍

Please define new workflow work fine. I don't use workflow default of alfresco so i not sure it work fine ^^

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);
}

Can you pls help.
Also in the Javascript API tutorial I saw a People API can you pls clarify how to use it.

Thanks again
