User Interaction

[beckk]

Hello

I'm new to vCO and need a workflow with user interaction,

For example two selectboxes where the values of selbox2 are dependend of the selection of selbox1

Is there a way to make that?

and how can I get the selected values in the following scripting task??

Kind Regards

so, I have found the way to create one selectbox (Selbox1)

with an "external inputs" param (type: string)

which has the properties in the presentation (predefined list of elements => Array/string)

but how can I create a dependend Selectbox

eg:

if value of Selbox1 is A => values of Selbox2 are A1 and A2 or

if value of Selbox1 is B => values of Selbox2 are B1 and B2

and so on??

Kind Regards

Hi!

You have to create an action, which implements your planned logic.

Then you can add a property to Selbox2 with "Predefined values" and select the action to be called to "fill" these predefined values.

Cheers,

Hi Klaus,

as Tschoergez mentioned you have to use an action to filter the second box. I've attached a little example to show you how it works. The main Workflow is empty, look at the presentation tab where the definition is done.

I've explained this on

regards, Andreas

Hi Klaus,

Book - i don't know - I use developers guide, VCO API explorer, this community and following links:

http://communities.vmware.com/community/vmtn/mgmt/orchestrator

http://www.vcoteam.info (by RSS)

http://mighty-virtualization.blogspot.com (by Twitter)

For common tasks there are a lot of workflows from project - but I can not publish them as package, sorry. If there is a matching question, i will copy the code part, change it a little bit and post it.

Ask community or add comment / question on http://mighty-virtualization.blogspot.com, and we look or prog for a solution
