Using Workitem/workflow to trigger action
Hello,
Can I use a workflow to define the state that a workItem can be in and programmatically trigger an associated action based on a given event? The question is can one use workflow and workItem to automate processes? Do permission to trigger workflow action are enable and working? Thank you for sharing |

Hi
You can use the work item client library to programmatically trigger workflow actions. Workflow states on a work item can only be changed using workflow actions; direct modifications on the state attribute are not supported. The permissions are checked for the user that executes the save operation. The wiki page https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/ProgrammaticWorkItemCreation has some information about using the plain java client library. Regards Marcel Jazz Work Item team. |

Thanks, I was able to change WI states by changing workflow actions programmatically but what I really need is to be able to perform an action (invoke some Java code) when a WI state changes. I guess I need to use the Event Handler but it is disabled under Configuration Data or Project Configuration.
Any help or sample is welcome... Thanks Hi |
