Retrieve all properties in Xaas and pass to vRO workflow

[SteveCSchofield]

Is it possible to retrieve all the properties of a machine after it's been built, then run software components, pass this data to a vRO workflow.   I have a custom property group with these properties on the blueprint.

Extensibility.Lifecycle.Properties.VMPSMasterWorkflow32.Requested

Extensibility.Lifecycle.Properties.VMPSMasterWorkflow32.MachineProvisioned

Extensibility.Lifecycle.Properties.VMPSMasterWorkflow32.BuildingMachine

Extensibility.Lifecycle.Properties.VMPSMasterWorkflow32.Disposing

Extensibility.Lifecycle.Properties.VMPSMasterWorkflow32.MachineActivated

Extensibility.Lifecycle.Properties.VMPSMasterWorkflow32.UnprovisionMachine

Take a look at this post http://extendingclouds.com/enabling-the-event-broker/ There is a sample workflow that will list all the properties. This should give you a good starting point if you look at the object where he parses the incoming payload.

i second that. for vra7 use the event broker. a lot simpler. you can get every property (including your own) that were used at deployment

This article may help out - https://virtualviking.net/2016/01/20/exploring-the-vrealize-automation-7-0-event-broker-part-2/ 

Look for the section on enabling properties passing.
