Hi! All
I want to create a workflow to perform Windows machine and services start/stop operations. Please can you give me an idea how to design my workflow.
Hi!
AutomationEdge’s Windows plugin has several ready actions. Following are a few ready actions related to Windows machine and services start/stop.
-
Windows: Restart Machine
-
Windows: Get Service Status
-
Windows: Start Service
-
Windows: Stop Service
-
Windows: Restart Service
I have designed a workflow with input parameters for Action Type and Service Name if applicable. I have used a String Operations plugin step to trim the Action type string value and convert it to lower case.
-
There is an initial filter to check if the action type is Restart Machine. If so, it follows the path to restart the machine. Else it checks the service status.
-
I then applied a filter to check if the Action Type is to start a Service and perform the action with the ready action for it.
-
I then applied a filter to check if the Action Type is to stop a Service and perform the action with the ready action for it.
-
I then applied a filter to check if the Action Type is to restart a Service and perform the action with the ready action for it.
In this way you can effectively use the prebuilt actions to handle several action types in one workflow.
