Get Workflow

Use this command to retrieve workflow definitions (process and email) to a file. This command can be useful when migrating your system.

Note: When migrating a system that uses Certification, the Certification Definition needs to be redefined in Longview Workflow for the processes using Certification.

You can use the Get Workflow commands (Process, Email, All) in conjunction with the Put Workflow commands (Process, Email, All) to migrate workflow definitions from one environment to another. The Get Workflow commands do not retrieve workflow statuses. Processes that are under construction are not available for retrieval.

Since the Get Workflow Email command is not process-specific, this command retrieves all Workflow email definitions.

Syntax

where:

• OutputFileName is the name of the output file to contain the retrieved data. The file name can include a complete or partial folder path in the format C:\...\FileName. If the document is in the working folder, you don’t need to specify the drive or path. If the file name includes spaces, enclose it in double quotation marks.
• ProcessName is the name of the workflow process in the Longview server.

Syntax

GET WORKFLOW ALL ALL @AllWorkStuff.xml
