Receive Notification
This is a process starter activity. The Receive Notification activity starts a process when another process executes a Notify activity with a matching key and a shared configuration resource.
General
The key specified in the Key field of the General tab creates a relationship between the Receive Notification process starter and the corresponding Notify activity. The same shared configuration (Notify Configuration) resource must be specified by the corresponding Receive Notification and Notify activities to pass the data from the process containing the Notify activity to the process started with Receive Notification. The schema in the shared configuration resource however can be empty, if you do not want to pass data between processes.
The General tab has the following fields.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | The name to be displayed as the label for the activity in the process. |
| Shared Configuration | The shared configuration resource that defines a data schema for this activity.
The shared configuration resource is required, but the schema can be empty if you do not want to pass data between processes. |
| Key | The key that coordinates a
Receive Notification process starter with the corresponding
Notify activity.
The key must be a fixed string. |
Advanced
The Advanced tab has the following fields.
