cancel workflow from flow or using Business rule

[Saras Moorthi]

i'm not sure how to create run script activity in flow , need some guidance on this

alternatively, I tried with after Business rule with script as below, it's just setting flow context to cancel and i still can view the workflow from show workflow option. How do i remove the workflow completely?

 if ((current.stage == 'Request Cancelled') && current.context

          && !current.context.nil()) {

      var w = new Workflow();

      var now_GR = new GlideRecord('wf_context');

      if (now_GR.get(current.context))

          w.cancelContext(now_GR);

      }

that Related link is not visible to all

what's the point in this requirement if the workflow is already cancelled via your script

Hi @Ankur Bawiskar 

that show workflow link is still visible to end users. my br just setting workflow context to cancelled. is there a way to remove that workflow completely?

@Saras Moorthi 

you can update the UI action condition but it's an OOB UI action

Also why end users are seeing that button?

HI @Saras Moorthi 

Can we do like this, I have used a Before Insert BR on my custom table and running this script....

var rec = new GlideRecord('u_customTable');

rec.addQuery('number', current.number);

rec.query();

if (rec.next()) {

var workflow = new global.Workflow();

workflow.cancel(rec);

gs.info("Existing Recors is " + rec.sys_id);

}
