Notifications from tasks
Built-in way:
- In the solutions tab, go to Tasks->[Task Project Name]->[Task Name]-> Task Notifications
- Right click and create a new notification. This is basically an email template. You can use any of the pipeline data that is input to the task in the email.
- Open the task overview screen for the task you want a notification on.
- Click on the Events tab
- Add a new Event and name it appropriately
- In the Event Actions section, add a new action and select the Send Notification action. Select the notification that you created in step 2.
Now the users need to subscribe to receive the notifications:
- Login to My Webmethods Server.
- Go to Monitoring->Business->Tasks->MyInbox
- Right above the Export Table button is a subscriptions link. Click it.
- Hit the Subscribe button
- Select the notification and hit next.
- Click the checkbox after task subscriptions and hit save.
Note: As the Administrator, you can set up subscriptions for other users. Also in 7.1.3 we could not get subscriptions to work when assigning a role to the subscription. We had to do individuals.
Integration Server Way:
- Create a flow service (or java service) that will send out your email notification.
- Register that service in the Bindings window in designer in your task project.
- Open the task overview screen for the task you want a notification on.
- Click on the Events tab
- Add a new Event and name it appropriately
- In the Event Actions section, add a new action and select the Invoke Service action.
- Select the service you created in steps 1 and 2.
