Hi there!

To reduce project dependency on 3rd party paid services the StackStorm TSC has decided to move the Q/A from this forum to Github Discussions. This will make user experience better integrated with the native Github flow, as well as the questions closer to the community where they can provide answers.

Config var in workflow definition?

Workflows
#1

Hello! I have an orquestra workflow which has a task at the end to send out a message to chat room . . . I would like to make this message conditional on a flag set in config, so I guess I would do something like

task_before_sending_out_message:
    action: ex_pack.poopy
    next:
        - when: <% succeeded() %> and <% ***config.flag == True*** %>
          do: task_to_send_out_message

task_to_send_out_message:
    action: gchat.send_message "yay"

What do I need to put for “config.flag” to be able to use a var from the pack config?

Thanks!!!

@guymatz you can access context variables with ctx().var_name. They need to be set in the vars array at the beginning of the workflow. Then you publish it to the context.

Some posts here: Passing output to slack from workflow

Check out vars here: Orquesta Workflow Definition — StackStorm 3.1.0 documentation

You can see them on the second link getting assigned, published and printed.
