Hi Community,

In Life Cycle Event, I have created the activity sets. In the activity set, I have a few activities that generate tasks. 

What's my concern here is we can trigger activities in a subsequential manner?

Like user first needs to complete one activity task than after only second activity will get triggered.  

Thanks,

Vivek

Hi @Vivek Verma ,

as @seanantle mentioned, the only way to enforce the execution order of activities within an activity set is to put them in a container activity. You need to be on Paris for that, though. As workaround you could create more activity sets and then put each activity in a dedicated activity set but this may become messy and not work for other reasons.

Check out the Activity Container activity type, which is used to order activities as opposed to spawning them all at once when the activity set is triggered. Product documentation can be found here. Scroll down to the section labeled For an activity container.

Good luck!

I'm worried that why do I get the option of  Container activity (order field) in Orlando release If this is limited to Paris Only.

My apologies - we skipped Orlando, you are right, looking at the documentation Container type activities seem to available in Orlando, so that should be good.
