Start a Process

In the following part, you can see an example of how you can start a Workflow using a Soap Web Service. The different used methods are: BeginTransaction, SetTransactionParameter, SendTransactionStartEvent.

# Create a proxy for the Paging web service
$page = New-WebServiceProxy -Uri $currentUri

# Begin Transaction: returns TransactionID
if ($messaging) {
 $transactionID = $page.BeginTransaction($processID)
} else {
 $transactionID = $page.BeginTransaction($EventElementID)
}
$transactionID

$page.SetTransactionParameter($transactionID,"Titel","Event01")
$page.SetTransactionParameter($transactionID,"Ort","techcEnter")
$page.SetTransactionParameter($transactionID,"Anfangszeit","30.10.2014")
$page.SetTransactionParameter($transactionID,"Endzeit","31.10.2014 10:00:00")
$page.SetTransactionParameter($transactionID,"Beschreibung","Meine Beschreibung")

# StartTransaction(TransactionID)
$executionID = $page.SendTransactionStartEvent($transactionID,$domain,$username,$password)
$executionID

Raise an Intermediate Event

An Intermediate Event is raised in the same way as a Workflow is started, except instead of the SendTransactionStartEvent method, the SendTransactionIntermediateEvent method is used.
