Correct Syntax to Run Workflow by URI out of the URL

Permanently deleted user

November 25, 2019 18:26

I have a site I typically run a WF4 out of by passing the &RunWorkflowByID parameter in.

 

I've migrated that workflow to the 5 series and can't quite seem to figure out the syntax to get it to run.

 

https://geo.grey.ca/Html5Viewer/index.html?viewer=DEV_Sandbox&RunWorkflowByURI= {Insert workflows URI from designer}.. However this doesn't seem to work and I get the error shown in the screen shot below.

 

If I remove the &RunWorkflow argurment the site runs perfectly fine, and if I run the same workflow from the I want to menu once the site has loaded it runs fine as well.

 

Any help is appreciated.

  Hi Shawn,

   

  For running workflow 5 in GVH, from what I learn, GVH doesn't support running workflow 5 via viewer URL.

   

  The workflow documentation shows how to run workflow5 in the GVH viewer. https://docs.geocortex.com/workflow/latest/help/Default.htm#wf5/help/run-workflows-in-gvh.htm

   

  cheers

  Hi Shawn,

   

  GVH supports configuration to run a pre-selected 5-series workflow at startup, but doesn't currently support running a 5-series workflow by URL parameters. Erik Kuipers posted some good info with a workaround suggestion from Ryan Cooney on the support center though. I'd suggest checking it out here: https://support.geocortex.com/essentialsGSCForumDetail?id=0D5f200006aNzxCCAS&main-nav=essentials&sub-nav=forum

  Is there a updated link to show this workaround?
