Start multiple workflows at once

Is there a way to start multiple workflows at once, controlled by a single workflow?

There is an option to stop a workflows from another workflow, but is there any such option to start a workflow from another one?

The only way I can think of to controlling workflows outside the UI is with REST API commands : https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/campaign-standard/using/working-with-apis/managing-workflows/controlling-a-workflow.html?lang=en#working-with-apis

Hello @shwetambra,

 

You can use external signal activities for your need and create the main workflow like this: 

 

 

Add external signal configuration in each end activity with the workflow to trigger :

Also make sure the workflows to trigger are already started with external signal activity blinking :

 

 

More info on external signals : https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/campaign-standard/using/managing-processes-and-data/execution-activities/external-signal.html?lang=en#configuration

 

Cheers.

Hi, so that is the issue - my workflow (the one with external signal) wont be in the start state, that is the challenge. When I wrote start, I literally meant start and not process or trigger.

Any ideas?

 

Thanks 🙂
