Current Date and Other Available System Variables in the Context

[ramki_maley]

I need to check current date with a date supplied to the workflow context from the application. Is current date available in the context similar to ${info.startedBy}? Is it in YYYYMMDD format? What other variable are supplied by the system other than the below?

• workflowInstanceId
• workflowDefinitionId
• startedBy
• businessKey

TIA,

Ramki Maley.

Hi Ramki,

There are no other fields on $.info than the ones documented. This is a special object only for workflow related data. But the standard Ecmascript 5.1 APIs are available.

You can use any date-related API that is defined in that standard. For example, "new Date().toISOString()" will give you the current time in YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ

Regards,

Tobias
