How do you create a workflow Association in XML?
You specify a workflow’s association form in the workflow template definition XML. To do this, set the value of the AssociationURL attribute of the Workflow element to the custom form page you want to use for workflow association. For example:
When to run item updated workflow in item created workflow?
Your item created workflow will set this field, and your item updated workflow will have to check for it. If it’s set, then the item created workflow has already, and the item updated workflow can run. If not, then the item created workflow has not run, and the item updated workflow should not run.
When to add a new workflow in SharePoint Foundation?
When an administrator selects a workflow to associate with a given list, library, or content type, SharePoint Foundation displays the Add a New Workflow page.
What does on workflowactivated activity do in SharePoint?
The OnWorkflowActivated activity contains a property, WorkflowProperties, that returns an SPWorkflowActivationProperties object. This object represents the initial properties of the workflow as it starts, such as the user who added the workflow and the list and item to which the workflow was added.
Where is the Association data stored in spworkflow?
The workflow association data is stored as XML in the AssociationData property of the appropriate SPWorkflowAssociation object. When a workflow instance starts, this data is also passed into the workflow via the AssociationData property of the SPWorkflowActivationProperties object.
Association and initiation forms are displayed for users to complete before any workflow actually starts. You can use these forms to enable users to set parameters and other information for the workflow in advance.
Can a workflow initiation form be hosted in ASP.NET?
If you initiate the workflow from a client application, it can host the InfoPath workflow initiation form without converting the form to ASP.NET. However, in each case the data-binding operation is handled in the same way. To use initiation data, name your form control the same as the element in the initiation data XML.
