Customization of OOTB Manage Publication Wizard to point to Custom Workflows

[S_K_Agarwal]

We have requirement to design custom workflows to perform activation & deactivation of the selected content having some specific custom steps and these workflows should be triggered using OOTB Manage Publication Wizard. The challenge I have is Manage Publication Wizard is pointing to workflow models (/etc/workflow/models/xxxxxxxxxxx/jcr:content/model) which I am not able to find in Adobe as Cloud Services. The Custom workflows what we have created are located under (/conf & /var).

• /conf/global/settings/workflow/models/xxxxxxxxxxx
• /var/workflow/models/xxxxxxxxxxx

So we are confused with what workflow model path we should provide in case of overlaid manage publication wizard.

Hi @S_K_Agarwal,

Please use workflow from /var location in overlay. It's because under /var location executable/runtime versions of workflows are stored.

So your code in overlay will look like that:

scheduleActivationWorkflow="/var/workflow/models/xxxxxxxxxxx"
