Launch custom workflow on page/asset publish

[Kiranchonkar]

Hi,

I am using AEM 6.5 version.

I have created a custom workflow model.

Currently I am able to launch it manually for single page.

But my requirement is to launch a workflow automatically as soon as activate button is clicked on page or asset from author.

I don't want to trigger workflow separately.

Is there any default workflow which AEM provides.

Or please suggest a process for automating workflow triggering.

I don't want to do it from workflow launcher on replication date modified node change.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Kiranchonkar ,

You can create an event handler which listens to the replication event and triggers your workflow programmatically.

Follow the below blog

Hope this helps.

Hi @Kiranchonkar ,

Use workflow launcher based on node modify with condition "jcr:content/cq:lastReplicationAction == Activate" . (not with replication date)

Please find the below screenshot.

Hope this will help. Happy Coding

when i add this condition "jcr:content/cq:lastReplicationAction == Activate" the laucher doesnt get triggered anymore... but does when i remove the condition any ideas?

If you take the spaces out around the == this should work. 

jcr:content/cq:lastReplicationAction==Activate 

This argument worked for me in AEM Cloud
