Outbound Transition for a Custom Activity

[Manoj_Kumar_]

Hello All,

I am trying to build a custom activity which will shorten the URLs. I have completed most of the parts. But I am not able to figure out how to create a temporary table for my activity and then pass the data to the next activity.

My workflow just ends at the bitly activity and do no go beyond that.

Here is the transition code which I am using for this custom activity.

<element name="transitions">
      <element name="transition" ref="transition"/>
    </element>

Can anyone help me here?

Hi @Manoj_Kumar_ ,

I think your schema is correct. If you want to continue the flow to the transition, you need to add the following in your activity js (I pasted 2 snippets) 

task.postEvent(task.transitionByName('transition'));
task.setCompleted();
return 0;

or

task.postEvent(task.transitionTransition())
task.setCompleted()

return 0;

Of line, I developed also a bit.ly URL Shortener using typologies rules. If you want we can discuss  about the best practices.

Thanks,

David
