Attach files dynamically in WF

Hi There,

I wonder if files can be attached dynamically when the WF is active, meaning can I have an task to add files dynamically after the workflow is started?

Thanks in Advance.

Do you mean automatically ? This is done quite often during an external task. You may have a task that generates HTML and attaches any images that are in the DCR.

Or are you looking at a user task when a person adds files manually ?

Yes see TeamSite::WFtask perldoc for methods AddFile & AddMultipleFiles.

Hi,

The files are html that get generated or xml files that can be attached while WF is active and running.

Then write an externaltask in perl that iterates through the list of files and users wftask::addfile to attach the additional files. This is assuming you are using WFTs and not WFM.
