Logging from a flow

[Colleen]

Is there a workflow.info equivalent for a Flow Designer script?

I know that there is a log action, but I would like to update the flow log from a script step to help with debugging.

Yes, it works inline. I just tested

Can you post your code? Maybe something else is going wrong.

Hi Mike

That's weird.  This is my script:

gs.info('in flow script');

var task_state = parseInt(fd_data._7__create_catalog_task.catalog_task.getValue('state'));

return (task_state==3); // closed complete

I've checked the system log and nothing.

try this instead, for testing purposes

gs.info('in flow script');
//var task_state = parseInt(fd_data._7__create_catalog_task.catalog_task.getValue('state'));
return 3; // closed complete

Also, when you tested the flow, and go to the execution details, are there any errors?

Hi Mike_R

Changed the script:

gs.info('XXXXXXXXX in flow script');

// var task_state = parseInt(fd_data._7__create_catalog_task.catalog_task.getValue('state'));

return true; // closed complete

Still nothing in the system log, and no execution errors.

Maybe I need to set a property to enable logging?

Can you test you flow by clicking the test button

Then view the execution details by clicking this

This way you can see if there are any errors and if the flow even reaches the action where you have the code.
