Task Step¶
A Task Step is a single action that is executed as a part of a Task. Each Task can have one or more steps which are ran in a specified order.
Example
A Task could have two steps. The first step Sends an Email and the second step toggles a project switch.
Each Task Step carries out one of the following actions:
| Action | Description |
|---|---|
| Send Message Template | Send a message template. |
| Execute Task | Execute a Child Task. |
Properties¶
A Task Step has the following properties:
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Task | The task this step belongs to. |
| Step Type | The action that the step will take when it is executed. E.g. Send Message Template |
| Ordinal | When this step should be executed relative to other steps in the Task. Smaller Ordinals will be executed first. |
Task Context¶
If the Task has a Task Context, then this will be used when executing the Task Step.
Example
A Task Context of Submission 0034 when sending a message template will apply this submission as a filter to that Message Template
