How to view schema running on browser?

[WillianCardoso]

Hello everyone,

It's possible to view the schema running on browser? The same way when we view on vRO Client.

Please, only show me the way that I search.

I'm working with VMware Orchestrator 6.0

Cheers!!!

you can try

https://vcoip:8281/vco/api/workflows/{workflow-id}/schema

it should return .png image with the schema.

according the REST api docs it should be available since 5.5

see https://vcoip:8281/vco/api/docs/resource_Workflow%20Service.html

igaydajiev,

Thanks for try help me, but It's almost enough. This way, I can see only the image of workflow. My intention was see something like the image of workflow, but running.

My development team builded a frontend app to launch workflows without necessary enter in vCO Client. Now I would like to show the schema (the same way with vCO Client), but not only show the image... but the execution...

I guess it's not possible.

However, thank you very much.

The workflowToken has a saveSchemaImageToFile method that should return a live view of the running workflow. By calling it several time you can certainly display a close to live update of the workflow.

You could also experiment with showDetails=true parameter to workflow execution url (https://vco_ip:8281/vco/api/workflows/{workflow_id}/executions/‌{execution_id}/?showDetails=true

It will return addtional section execution-stack

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<workflow-execution xmlns="http://www.vmware.com/vco" href="https://localhost:8281/vco/api/workflows/ae4e2a62-f257-4f56-9298-612c511e5f25/executions/8a9be0554f6...">
  <current-item-display-name>Scriptable task</current-item-display-name>
  <execution-stack>
  <workflow-item name="item1" displayName="Scriptable task">
  <relations>
  <link href="https://localhost:8281/vco/api/workflows/ae4e2a62-f257-4f56-9298-612c511e5f25/" rel="workflow" />
  </relations>
  </workflow-item>
  </execution-stack>
</workflow-execution>

cdecanini_‌‌ I'm looking for the "saveSchemaImageToFile" method you've mentioned on the REST API docs, but I just can't find it... Would you mind elaborating on your answer a bit more?

PS: the method described by igaydajiev‌ (GET /workflows/{id}/schema) returns a static representation of the workflow's schema.
