Workflow Activities

Last updated Feb 19, 2025

v23.4.3

Release date: 27 April 2023

Breaking change

The 23.4.3 version of the Form.Activities package causes a breaking change for workflows built with previous versions of Form.Activities (2.0.5 and lower).

If you want to reuse the workflows that you created with package versions 2.0.5 or lower, inside projects that use versions 23.4.3 or higher, you need to recreate them using the new activities.

New form experience

We are excited to announce the general availability of our new and improved Form experience, now a part of our Trigger-based Attended Automation solution. Our current Form capabilities allow you to build complex forms, collect and process user or application input, and control the way they display using custom user and event triggers. With this release, we have added new activities, a revamped Form Builder, and custom HTML forms, allowing the creation of complex attended automations. You can now trigger events based on form events, such as a component changing or losing focus, and execute forms using custom JavaScript. Additionally, you can continue workflow execution while a form is still showing, edit and retrieve form values at runtime, and change the form layout properties at runtime.

Learn more about the new form experience in our documentation.

New activities

A new form experience requires a new set of activities that allows you to cover all your attended scenarios. Here's what you can now achieve using the new activities:
  • Create, edit, and delete forms independently from any activity, using a Form file.

    The Form file is created and built inside Studio.

  • Display multiple forms, or instances of the same form, at the same time, using the Show Form activity and the new trigger capabilities.
  • Start triggers based on events taking place inside the form, using the Form trigger activity.
  • Retrieve and update form values at runtime, using the Get Form Values and Set Form Values activities.
  • Change the properties of a form at runtime, using the Change Form Properties activity.
  • Create forms using custom HTML files. Check out this tutorial to learn how to create your own custom HTML forms.
  • Run your forms using custom JavaScript written inside the Run Form Script activity.
