getWorkflowForId Operation
The getWorkflowForId operation retrieves a workflow identified by its unique ID.
If you know the ID of a specific workflow, you can use the getWorkflowForID operation to obtain the
workflow object. Multiple workflows running through different plug-ins might have the same name. The
safest way to obtain workflows is to use the getWorkflowsWithName operation to obtain their ID, rather than
by obtaining them by name.
You can find out a workflow ID by checking the workflow's workflowID property, as the following example
shows.
String workflowId = workflows[0].getId();
The getWorkflowForId operation is declared as follows.
public Workflow getWorkflowForId(String workflowId, String username, String password);
Type Value Description
String
workflowId
ID of the workflow to retrieve.
String
username
Orchestrator user name.
String
password
Orchestrator password.
Return Value
Returns the Workflow object that corresponds to the provided ID. Returns null if you pass it an invalid
parameter.
