Help with calling a Workflow from the flow designer

[muktha1]

Hi all,

I have created a catalog request item and want to attach a flow designer with approval action, Emails and an orchestration flow of adding computer to AD group. I created an  orchestration workflow on the requested item table but unable to call it from the flow designer . I read in the community that workflows running on requested items table will not be visible in the Call a workflow list. If that is the case , how do I create the orchestration workflow outside of the requested item table and call it it the flow designer? Can anyone please suggest?

Thanks

Hi,

you can use Script action in flow designer and invoke the workflow using that and pass the ritm variable value to it

Hi Ankur,

How do I invoke a workflow from the flow designer ? Workflow built on RITM not visible in the list. How else should I invoke a  workflow which will involve adding computer to an AD group?

Thanks
