Hi Ratna,

Check n use the following code, might be usefull....

LaunchWorkflowJobCommand LWJC = new LaunchWorkflowJobCommand(connections);

LWJC.setSession(session);

WorkflowJobId WJID = new WorkflowJobId(<Check job id in ur work flow and insert here>);

LWJC.setJobId(WJID);

try

{

LWJC.execute();

}

Hi Deepthi,

I had used the below code for retrieving the workflow's id's

RetrieveWorkflowsCommand RetriveworksFlows = new RetrieveWorkflowsCommand(connections);

RetriveworksFlows.setSession(session);

try{

RetriveworksFlows.execute();

}

catch(Exception e)

{

}

WorkflowProperties[] workflowpro = RetriveworksFlows.getWorkflows();

WorkflowId[] workflowid = new WorkflowId[workflowpro.length];

for(int n=0;n<workflowpro.length;n++)

{

workflowid[n] = workflowpro[n].getId();

String workfloName = workflowpro[n].getLaunchType()+"";

System.out.println("id--"workflowid"name"+workfloName);

}

and for creating the workflow job id i had written the below code

CreateWorkflowJobCommand workflowjobcommand = new CreateWorkflowJobCommand(connections);

workflowjobcommand.setWorkflowId(workflowid[0]);

workflowjobcommand.setRecordIds(recordId);

workflowjobcommand.setSession(session);

try{

workflowjobcommand.execute();

}

catch(Exception e)

{

}

then to start the workflow what i have to do .

please expain me

Hi Ratna kumar,

You can use following steps:

1. Create an object of type InactiveWorkflowTask.

Eg.

InactiveWorkflowTask workflowTask= new  InactiveWorkflowTask(workflowJob, WorkflowTask.Status.UNLAUNCHED, username);

2. Get WorkflowTaskAction using RetrieveWorkflowTaskActionsCommand. Use setWorkflowTask() to set workflow task.

On execution, this command returns array of workflowtaskaction.

You can iterate through this array (or use for loop) and find an workflowtaskaction having type = WorkflowTaskAction.LAUNCH

3. Select this workflowtaskaction and use ExecuteWorkflowTaskActionCommand to trigger workflow.

Hope this helps.

Deepti
