Hi Team,

I have a scenario to copy the result(Output-Its in string) of workflow 1 in to workflow 2.
Scenario:
Workflow 1 Name:Agents(Output-Failed Agents)
Workflow 2 Name:Policies(Output-Failed Policies)

Expected:
Email need to be send with both outputs.From Workflow 2 am sending email copying the Workflow 1 output.
Appreciate your inputs!

Hi @RajeshT

To send the data from workflow 1 to workflow 2,
You need to declare out_agument in workflow 1.
And invoke the workflow 1 in workflow 2, while invoking you need to import the argument, store the argument value into the variable.
Now your variable will contain the workflow 1 data, and you can use it appropriately.

In the workflow 2, use Invoke WorkFlow Activity and provide workflow 1 path to invoke that.

And also in Workflow 1, create one argument and mention direction as Out and pass that value to WorkFlow 2 and here also create argument of same type and mention direction as In to accept value from other workflow 1.

Click on Import Arguments of workflow 1 and show me screenshot once. I guess you didn’t pass that argument value.

In the value field pass the variable.
Then use that variable

Hi @sharique.khan @lakshman

Which variable i need to key in?

lakshman · November 14, 2019, 4:23am

@RajeshT

Here value is empty. Create one variable of string and pass it here. And then pass this variable to other workflow where you created In argument in other workflow.
