Hi All,

 

After spending hours learning and Practicing the CMDB Fundamentals im feeling stuck at the Task 13, Task is to configure Remediation , i have used all the hints and done the below steps:

1) creating workflow

2) creating the remediation rule

3) running the correctness job in the cmdb dashboard,

4) trying to remediate from the orphan task,

 

i have tried to do this multiple times each time correcting the workflow . initially the short description was not getting updated, then the Phrase was getting updated but not the task number . i have done all the steps and tried all troubleshooting but unable to fix the issue. kindly suggestions on resolving this, i hope the below screenshots help .

Solution task 13 

Hello Marudhu , I finally solved the last task 13 - took me almost 2hrs to figure it out but i am happy I did it.

For Script use this : workflow.scratchpad.number = current.number;

Use this for short description value : Workflow launched for task number ${current.number}

 

This should solve the last task, lemme know if you find this helpful and rea
