Is it possible to use the response value from a Projection Action that triggered the workflow?

I have a workflow that is trigger after a Projection call:

  • Projection: CreateRepairWorkOrderAssistantHandling
  • Call: CreateRepairAction

I want to be able to use the response from that call inside my workflow (i.e the WoNo) but I noticed it is not part of the payload that gets sent to the workflow.

Is there a way to get that response and use it in the workflow? I thought that triggering it “after” would allow me to use the response value of that call.

Hi ​@jamie.maiquez 

When I checked the CreateRepairAction call action in CreateRepairWorkOrderAssistantHandling in API Explorer, there is no output attribute for WoNo, it only returns an attribute named value.

So, I believe there is no way to get WoNo directly as a workflow input from that action.

As a workaround, you could add an IFS API Task as the first task in your WF with a READ action for an EntitySet that contains WoNo and apply suitable filters using the relevant parameters to get the exact record. I believe that would allow you to retrieve the WoNo and use it later in the workflow.

I'm not sure whether this approach fits your scenario, but it might be worth trying.
