Is it possible to link multiple In Parameters into a IN string type?

Hello,


Just wondering if there is a way to link multiple In parameters to an IN content string.  For instance I have a workflow to Change RAM on a system after that workflow runs it runs the Send Email Notification workflow.  I would like the email to state the VM that was selected and the memory that was adjusted in the content string.  I have been able to link 1 of the items into the content string but not both.  How would you go about doing this.  Attached is a screenshot of the visual bindings on the Send Email Notification.  The only two In Parameters passing in from the Change Ram workflow are vm name and memory number

No, this is not possible. You'll need to add a scriptable task before your email item in the schema. send the inputs into that scriptable task, concatenate as needed and output a "content" variable to be passed as the input of your e-mail item Smiley Happy

Thanks for the response, I was kinda of thinking that is what would need to be done.  Is there any dump zones for basic scripting for orchestrator for tasks like this.  I'm not the best scripter in the world, but if I have a base to work off of I can usually muttle my way through it.

Take a look at my blog: http://www.vcoteam.info (Blogroll has links to additional blogs focusing on orchestration/automation), the official vCO blog http://blogs.vmware.com/orchestrator , Joerg's blog http://www.vcoportal.de . And if you need help with Javascript for your vCO work, take a look at the Eloquent Javascript book (linked on Joerg's blog homepage).
