Workflow Attribute Values

When working with workflows and attributes, it's helpful (actually it's pretty much essential) to know how those attributes store their values. Below is a list of a few commonly used attribute field types, with a description of how the value is stored internally.

Field TypeStored Value
Boolean'True' or 'False'
CampusA campus's GUID
Defined ValueA comma-delimited list of defined value GUIDs (if attribute is not configured for multiple values, there should only be one GUID)
GroupA group's GUID
Group MemberA GroupMember Record's GUID
Multi-SelectA comma-delimited list of the values (e.g., 1,2,3) of the selected items
PersonA person alias GUID
Single-SelectThe value (e.g., "1") of the selected item
TextThe value of the textbox

The full list of field types can be found in our Workflows & Lava documentation.

When creating workflow actions that update an attribute value, make sure to reference this list so that your attribute values get set correctly.
