Lava WorkflowActivate Parameters

4

Team,

I'm attempting to launch a Workflow using a Lava Run action type.  Seems incredibly straightforward, but I can't get it to launch.

In the WorkflowType 52, it's expecting four parameters: 

  • Person-SubmittingCard (PERSON)
  • Person-CampusPastor (PERSON)
  • VisitNumber (TEXT)
  • Campus (CAMPUS)

52 is the correct id of the workflow I'm attempting to activate and I CAN get it to activate if I use the Activate Workflow Action Type in another step with the parameters.

Here's the code:

{% workflowactivate WorkflowType:'52' Person-SubmittingCard:{{ Workflow | Attribute:'Person-SubmittingCard', 'RawValue' }} Person-CampusPastor:{{ Workflow | Attribute:'Person-CampusPastor', 'RawValue' }} VisitNumber:'{{ Workflow | Attribute:'VisitNumber' }}' Campus:{{ Workflow | Attribute:'Campus', 'RawValue' }} %}

  Activated new workflow with the id of #{{ Workflow.Id }} and name of {{ Workflow.Name }}.

{% endworkflowactivate %}

In the Enable Lava Commands section, I have ALL checked.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Doug Curlee

    Figured it out, two things wrong:

    1.  Found this article:  https://github.com/SparkDevNetwork/Rock/issues/3003  Parms needed to be all lowercase and I pulled out the hyphens as well.  

    2.  Had to have a variable in the Attribute (The attribute to store the result in) field - which I was left blank.  I created a TEXT attribute and selected that TEXT attribute from the list.

    Working like a champ.

    Thanks Tyler and Steven - appreciate the feedback.

    If you fix the single apostrophes does it work? I only see surrounding ticks on your VisitNumber attribute.

    Tyler,

    Thanks for the reply.  Good thought - I've now tried it both ways, ticks around each, as well as no ticks - still doesn't fire.  

    I created another new workflow with zero parameters.  The new workflow simply sends an SMS message to my phone.  Here's the call of the new workflow, doesn't fire...

    You will need the ticks around each. I'd make sure your Attribute Key's line up and maybe try removing the - from your Attribute Key's to see if that is causing any issues.
