Hi,

Where do I store configuration settings which a Workflow can read and apply. I am referring to something like AppSettings in the web.config of ASP.NET.  Plus how do I deploy these configuration settings onto the target environment.

 Thanks

Arjuna.

Arjuna,


You can use the Environment Library / StringTable to hold configuration values.  You can change the environment library to have different values for different target environments.  When you deploy your workflow, you specifiy the target environment and the values will be deployed to the string table.

Hi David,


Thanks for the information, however is it possible for me to group these fields.  For example like Order Settings, Product Settings and so on, like groups in the web.config.

Thanks

Arjuna.

One option would be to serialize complex types into string table entries.  You could also store them in SmartObjects.
