Pass variable to Sub Workflow

Question

I would like to call a subworkflow from a campaign, send the campaign internal name to the subworkflow, and pull that into the subworkflow query which builds a report for that campaign that was passed to it.

What code can I add to the subworkflow script that would pull instance.operation.internalName

and then what code do I need in the Javascript activity in the subworkflow to pull out that internal name and pass it to the query?

Hi @n235ps ,

In the Configuration script section of the Sub-workflow activity, you can try to add the following code to pull the instance.operation.internalName:

// Retrieve the internal name of the campaign
vars.internalName = instance.operation.internalName;

// Now, you can use vars.internalName in the subworkflow to perform operations.

You can now reference vars.internalName anywhere within the subworkflow to build queries or generate reports.
Example Query:

var query = xtk.queryDef.create(
  <queryDef schema="nms:delivery" operation="select">
    <select>
      <node expr="@internalName"/>
    </select>
    <where>
      <condition expr={"[operation/@internalName]='"+vars.internalName+"'"}/>
    </where>
  </queryDef>
);

var result = query.ExecuteQuery();
// Further processing to build the report
