Lets say i would like to add custom follow-up action to Deliver operation. As part of the implementation  I would like to open some kind of webform where user can enter some data . is it possible?

 Hi Julia.  Process permissions are currently configurable via the web UI (via the manage item in the Administration (gear) menu), but preconditions and follow-up actions are not. 

There are Eclipse UI extension points for contributing "aspect editor" UIs for preconditions and follow-up actions, and we plan to support this in the future via the web UI, but it's not there yet as of RTC 4.0.

But those are only for configuration of the pre/followup actions.. right?

she wants a new GUI DURING the advisor or participant execution.

Hi Nick.

Sam is right. I need GUI to show up during the execution and not as part of the configuration. Is it possible?

thanks.

No, UI cannot be brought up during execution of the advisor/participant execution. There's no UI context passed to theses extensions, and they may be triggered from different clients. They also run within the transaction for the operation, which you wouldn't want to block with a modal UI.
