Workflow Sample
The following workflow sample demonstrates how you can edit the custom properties of a virtual machine.
This workflow sample works in both Automation Orchestrator and VMware Aria Automation Service Broker. The following form implementation created in the Automation Orchestrator input form designer is mandatory.
For the default value to work in Service Broker, the
vRA Host
value is set by an action returning the content of the variables of the configuration element.
If the default value was set in Automation Orchestrator with a field variable binding, you would have to enable custom forms and set the constants after importing the workflow.
The
machineName
input labeled as Machine
is defined as a drop-down menu that uses getMachineIdsAndNames
as value options. This action returns an array of properties with the machine ID as a label and the machine name as a value.
The
customProperties
data grid uses a getMachineCustomProperties
action that returns a Properties type that can be bound directly to the machineid
input.
