Activity

Activity is used to reference any activity in a IBM Security Identity Manager workflow.

Availability

IBM Security Identity Manager 7.0

Provided by

The activity JavaScript object in the WorkflowExtension returns an Activity object that represents the current workflow activity. The workflow activity can be used in the context of a workflow activity PostScript, or in a transition script, to reference the current activity. For a transition script, this object represents the activity whose completion has lead to the evaluation of the transition script.

Process.getActivity() can return any Activity object in the context of a workflow process. See the description of this method.
