For one of our clients, I am trying to automate the creation of a project based on a matrix they now use in Excel. In total there are 3 different data points per row that need to automatically trigger a combination of the tasks of the total project template. Once every row has determined which portion of the tasks of the template are needed, they are stitched together to create a total overview of what needs to be requested. I will try to provide an example that has nothing to do with the client itself but does reflect the complexity of the original idea. Let’s assume I go own a restaurant for which I am keeping track of the different orders. My menu consists of two courses and a drink such that people can order a starter, a main course, and something to drink. In total there are two options per course and the course options have a step-by-step process of how they are created and must be served such that quality is upheld throughout the different orders. This would result in

Hi everyone, I need some assistance with sharing projects in Workfront. We have around 700 projects, and I have a list of these projects along with the teams they need to be shared with in CSV. Could anyone guide me on the best way to efficiently share these projects with the respective teams? I cant find option using Fusion action modules. Any tips or best practices would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Hi All,I'm trying to search for Assignments using the Custom Workfront API Call module.Is there a way to somehow flter on the custom field value of reference record? E.g. when searching for assignments, can I filter so that only assignments are returned that belong to a task with a certain custom form field value?I tried adding query strings like task:parameterValues:DE:FIELD=foo, task:DE:FIELD=foo, task:FIELD=foo, but all of these returned an error.Thanks,Tibor

Is there a native integration between Workfront and OneNote to track meeting notes in OneNote, but view within WF?

Hi friends! We have a milestone path we've attached to certain projects. I've gotten a request to create a board where the milestones are the columns. I've searched some, I've played some, but I can't seem to figure it out. Is this possible?

Hi. I know that deleting a custom form also deletes all custom data on the objects associated with the form. But does that mean it deletes ALL data that a particular field holds across ANY custom forms where that field may live? For example, if a have "Custom Form A" that uses a field that records which department is making the request. And "Custom Form B" that uses the same field. What happens to the data associated with that field for "Custom Form A" if I delete "Custom Form B."  Can I delete one custom form and still keep historical data for other custom forms that use the same fields? Hope my question makes sense.

Would love to hear from the developers themselves at this point. Is it difficult to integrate into the platform? I have Workfront open all day, and the plain white background hurts my eyes after prolonged use. A dark mode would surely be appreciated by me and COUNTLESS others. I believe this is an accessibility issue at this point. 

We're looking to incorporating a DAM and want to know what experiences you have had (good and bad) with what's out there. I believe some people use box.com also for this purpose but it's limited in what we are looking to do. Thanks for your feedback!

Hello,I need to create a report to filter out 2 specific tasks:1) Task 1 - Asset Audit2) Task 2 - Build I want to filter out projects where Task 2 is in progress and Task 1 is not complete.Task 1 - Actual end date is blank & Task 2 - Actual start end is not blank When I tried "OR" in the filter, it either shows Task 1 / Task 2. I need to filter out the combination of task 1 + status & task 2 + status.  Is there a way to create a filter for this combination?

Hi all,We have a complex WBS. In this WBS, there is a parent task called 'Custom'. It has many subtasks, and many of them also have subtasks. If we have no 'Custom' in the project, we close down the tasks. If we have more than one, we will copy the parent item and all its subtasks so that we can track and schedule each custom individually. Each 'Custom' has a unique ID, and on tasks, we have a field called "Custom ID". We want to enter the ID on the parent field and have this populate to all subtasks under the parent. Can this be done?

  Hi Folks,   Over the years, we have helped many former Workfront customers download their Workfront data (via our Workfront Snapshot solution) and documents once they had decided (unfortunately) the time had come to leave.   During one of our more recent such engagements, we were inspired (under some duress) to adapt our Extract Document technology in a way that allowed our client to download their ~250,000 documents directly from Workfront to their network. The new technique worked beautifully, with 99.8% of all documents successfully retrieved on the first try, albeit over the course of nearly 4 days of computing time.   That advance has now led us to the release our new Doc Sync solution, which lets you schedule one or more jobs to Synchronize filtered Documents into a target folder on your local network for expanded access and backup purposes, as the screenshot below illustrates.   However, all that also all got us wondering, and prompted us to start

Just curious if anybody has started using the new Array function.  If so how are you using it? I'm not quite sure how the function works as I've tested a few things but the field didnt' generate anything.   Is this functionality mainly for Fusion customers? 

We have a calendar that displays specific tasks on projects. However, because of the phrasing we have of our project names it can be hard to read.   Is there a way to delimit text by character? For example 999999-PSG-Project Name   The numbers and the letters may vary in length. I'm not sure how to separate the 'Project Name' from the rest of it.   Or create a calculated field that only pays attention to what's after the second hyphen?

I am trying to connect Workfront to an external platform, Wordbee. I have the information successfully going from Workfront into Wordbee. I also have the HTTP Make a Request modules working correctly, however the ID it is generating the request id and not the order id in Wordbee. WordBee takes a few seconds/mins depending on the queue to complete order creation.My next steps are:Create custom webhook in Workfront to watch new order events in wordbeePass this webhook URL in the Create Order API request along with current dataOnce WordBee completes creation of the order, it will trigger the webhook URL configured in WorkfrontBuild a workflow that listens to this trigger and saves this order id in the Workfront projectBut my question is: Do I need to make a separate scenario for the webhook to listen to Wordbee and pass the information back into Workfront or can I have it all in my current scenario

I was asked by a developer if there is a way to update the devices listed in Workfront Proof for Desktop. I rarely use this product so I wasn't sure of the answer. Thanks in advance for any help.-----------------Good morning, Mike. I just reviewed something in the Workfront Proof desktop app and there are very old devices in the selection list. The latest iPhone is iPhone X. Is there a way to update those?

Seeking some input on comparing dates in a report filter. Basically I have a calculated column that displays a message if the DATEDIFF between the Task's plannedStartDate and the Project's plannedStartDate is greater than 5 days. However, my filter for the report brings in all tasks where the Task's plannedStartDate is not equal to the Project's plannedStartDate. Since both the date and time are used for these dates, I'm getting more results than I'd like (for example, the Task plannedStartDate is April 3, 2025 at 9:00AM and the Project plannedStartDate is April 3 2025 at 9:15AM. What I really want is to update the report filter to match my calculated column - so only instances where there is a difference of 5 days or more. Any suggestions on how to make this work? I've explored using calculated fields to accomplish this but I'm not willing to go that route at this time. Thanks all!

Currently, I am getting a problem of referencing a specific element in a collection such as "1163:body.data" ("module-number.body:data") in Fusion.  Therefore, I need to convert a collection to an array so that I can use array functions to get specific elements. Does anyone know how to convert a collection to an array in Fusion? I really appreciate it! Anh Ly-HangVanguard Group

Hi, I am still trying to wrap my head around the way fusion handles variable creation namely arrays (coming from NodeJS).I am fetching all documents from one issue, and for each document I am fetching the proof information for each version. I am only interested in checking the proofDecision of the last version of each document; I am trying to set a variable (an array) that would store the proofDecision of the last version of each document. This is the scenario currently; my aim would be to have an array of collections with all the information from each operation/bundle in it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
