Using Application Configuration Parameters

Any application can have specific configuration parameters that affect the display and behavior of the application views and workflow rules. The site administrators can change these configuration parameters using Web Central UI, and the changes will immediately take effect.

To edit the application parameters, navigate to System / Archibus Administrator - Application Configuration / Configure Application Parameters. After editing, select Reload All Parameters to reload all application parameters from the database into Web Central.

Application configuration parameters are stored in the afm_activity_params table. Web Central provides methods that allow workflow rules to obtain specific application configuration parameter values. To retrieve a specific application parameter you need to provide the application name and the parameter name:

String serviceName = getActivityParameterString(context,
    "AbSolutionsMyAdn",
    "AutoNotifyRequestor");

It is up to you to decide how you wish to apply the configuration parameter values.

Example:
adn-products/solutions/workflow/src/main/com/mycompany/eventhandler/helpdesk/HelpDeskExampleHandlers.java, helpDeskPlanApprove() method.
