Adding FormData to workflow

Rama Kishore Kolli

Please let me know what is the correct way to add updated Form Data to a workflow. I am able to set values in form Attributes and returning updated FormData to hit below method

wf.getWorkFlowClient().updateWorkItemData(processId, subProcessId, wf.getTaskId(),updatedFormData);

Its not showing updated data in the workflow neither any errror in the logs.I am attaching the logs here with .

I went through the code flow and didn't find any issue in setting Attribute value in a FormData at Java side , still I am facing same behavior, no Update No Error.

Sending you the stepwise process I am using with comments what is working and what is not. Please go through it and let me know , what else I can try.

1. getting workpackage (list of ApplicationData that contains AttributeData and Form Data) - working fine and returning workpackage
workPackage = workFlowClient.getWorkItemData(workflowId, subWorkflowId, taskId);
2.Traversing through a nested Form Data("DAT_RM_APP_COMMENTS") and setting a value into it- working fine and setting the values

if (Attrib instanceof MultiLineAttribute) {
MultiLineAttribute multiAttrib = (MultiLineAttribute) Attrib;
if (multiAttrib.getDisplayName().equalsIgnoreCase("DAT_RM_APP_COMMENTS")) {// 3526
try {

System.out.println("viewForm.getRmComments()- "+viewForm.getRmComments());
multiAttrib.getValues().add(0,viewForm.getRmComments());
System.out.println("After Adding.getRmComments()- "+multiAttrib.getValues().get(0));-- This is returning Value
} catch (Exception e) {
logger.error(e, e);
}
}
}

3. After adding/seting particular value to an Form Attribute adding the same FormData below

wf.getWorkFlowClient().updateWorkItemData(processId, subProcessId, wf.getTaskId(),updatedFormData);-- Not Saving Data, neither any error


4.before updating the value in workflow, checked the updatedFormData so that it has correct Value-- working fine

List<Attribute> value =null;
value= updatedForms.getFormFields();
System.out.println("ExtractingExtractingExtractingExtracting value.size="+value.size());
for(int i=0;i<updatedFormData.size();i++){

try {
for (Attribute fField : value) {
Attribute Attrib = (Attribute) fField;
if (Attrib instanceof MultiLineAttribute) {
MultiLineAttribute mulLineAttr = (MultiLineAttribute) Attrib;

if (fField instanceof Attribute) {
if (mulLineAttr.getDisplayName().equalsIgnoreCase("DAT_RM_APP_COMMENTS")) {
if (mulLineAttr.getValues().size() > 0)
// viewForm.setRmComments(mulLineAttr.getValues().get(0));
System.out.println("ExtractingExtractingExtractingExtractingDAT_RM_APP_COMMENTS in View - "+mulLineAttr.getValues().get(0));----This returning the values.
}

}
}
}
} catch (Exception e) {
logger.error(e, e);
System.out.println("testCode exception");
}
}
