Event listener with a Workflow Launcher

[#1]

I've added a custom workflow step to the end of DAM XMP Writeback to move files once XMP Writeback is done.

hey smacdonald2008 , is there anyway i can trigger a workflow on a click of button. I want to create a tools page and onclick of button i want to start workflow . Would perfer javascript or Java

What is your requirement, that you want to move things around while potentially at the same time a workflow is started for it?

Kind regards,

We wanted to create a tools page to delete a node eg ecom data node , where we will have a button to request deletion and once it is approved by workflow process the node is deleted and replicated to publish server .

You can invoke a Workflow via the WF Java API -- Scott's Digital Community: Invoking Adobe Experience Manager Workflows using the AEM Java API

Ok, understood.

I think you are confused by the term EventListener.

In the AEM (backend) world the term EventListener describes a functionality, which listens for OSGI events and performs certain activities when they happen. OSGI events are sent for many things in the system; for example when a page has been created, an event with the topic "com/day/cq/wcm/core/page" is being sent.

This Event handling has nothing to do with any kind of reaction to UI/frontend actions.

Does this help?
