Hi,Not sure exactly what you're hoping for but in later releases of worklfow you can find out which launcher started a workflow, if it was started by a launcher. it is stored in the worklfow metadata with the key "launcherId".Hope this helps,Will

Looking through the workflow Javadocs - i am not seeing an API that returns this information:

http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/cq/5-6-1/javadoc/com/adobe/granite/workflow/exec/package-summary.html

Looks like its not supported via the Workflow API.

You may have to get this information using the JCR API - that is -reading the node props.

I will check with Will
