Trigger workflow on rollout of a site -MSM

Figured it out thanks.

I updated the docs so that now it has an example value for the model path :)

That the workflow starts for each page is the expected behaviour because the liveaction configuration is inherited for each child page. Perhaps your workflow can include a test on the payload path in an OR step, to prevent processing of child pages?

Hey scott, great input , wish it was clear in the documentation.

Really appreciate all the help.

Now my workflow is picking up payload, multiple times when i trigger the workflow. i.e> if i create a live copy, selecting languages en_CA and fr_CA , with name Test2, my workflow runns through all the pages available under /content/Test2. I would want it to pick just /content/Test2/en_CA,  /content/Test2/fr_CA  as payload, and trigger it one shot. I am trying to send payload path to Query Builder rest service to retrieve nodes of desired sling:resourceType modified in past two days and retrieve desired property in those nodes

What gets currently picked up in my workflow is 

/content/Test2

/content/Test2/en_CA - Query Builder ideally should have returned results but it skips and moves to next node

/content/Test2/en_CA/samplePage

/content /Test2/en_CA/samplePage/samplePage2

/content/Test12/en_CA/support

/content/Test12/en_CA/support/support

/content/Test12/en_CA/support/support/devices

/content/Test2/fr_CA

/content/Test2/fr_CA/samplePage

/content /Test2/fr_CA/samplePage/samplePage2

/content/Test12/fr_CA/support

/content/Test12/fr_CA/support/support

/content/Test12/fr_CA/support/support/devices

I would want to pick just /content/Test12/en_CA and  /content/Test12/fr_CA, or the languages selected while creating livecopy please let me know.

figured it out..thanks will update on rollout..

Hey Scott, 

None that i could see regarding workflow, will check it , strange, it should have worked.. any idea of how we could extract the arguments in the process step in the java code for workflow?

Yes i did add the enabled property and assigned it to true, although the doc doesn't say so.

It still doesn't work.Am using 5.6

 

I don't know why I mentioned the enabled property....I meant to discuss the "target" property. I assume you set this property to the workflow to execute? Are there any useful log messages when you do the roll out?

Johan has it right. Specifically, if you go to that page see the Creating Rollout Configurations section. When you create the rollout, add the "workflow" sync action to start a workflow.

scott

did you add the enabled property (= true) to the workflow node?
