Passing feature value as arguments to a workflow

I want to pass values of a feature as arguments to a workflow. My idea is to select a feature on the map and then in the detail screen there is a button run workflow. I know how to pass non-changing arguments but I can't find out how to pass dynamic arguments (like feature values). Anyone here who can help me with that?

  The use of run-time inputs is described here

  for the use of the 'context' input parameter.

  Hi Atze, in the Mobile app this works as follows (and I assume it will work the same in Web):

  • Add a 'get workflow inputs' activity to the workflow
  • Retrieve the attribute values by looking at =$getWorkflowInputs1.inputs.context[0].attributes.{fill in attribute name}

  And then of course run the workflow from map tip or something similar.

  Hope this helps, succes er mee!

  @Nico Burgerhart? Thank you for you fast respons. I now see I was looking in the wrong place for the awnser. I was looking in the Geocortex Web documentation but instead I needed to look in the Workflow documentation!
