Question

I want to create a workflow automatic task (1. Send back to Author 2. Publish to Staging).

Can any one provided the code snippet to do this using SDL Tridion Core Service ?

Answer 1

I don’t have a Core Service version, but here is one I wrote using VBScript and TOM which might get you started in the right direction

Set objAIs = CurrentWorkItem.ActivityInstance.ProcessInstance.ActivityInstances
Set objAI= objAIs (objAIs.Count - 1)
strLastMessage= objAI.FinishMessage
Set objAI= objAIs(1)
uriFirstUser= objAI.Performer.ID
Set objAI= Nothing
Set objAIs = Nothing
FinishActivity cstr(strLastMessage), "" , uriFirstUser

Just paste that in the script box of your automated activity, and you should be good to go
