Using the Library Plug-In

You can use the Library plug-in workflows as templates for customization and automation of client processes, and to troubleshoot Automation Orchestrator. The Library plug-in provides workflows in the Locking, Orchestrator, and Tagging workflow categories.

To access these workflows in the Automation Orchestrator Client, navigate to Library > Workflows and enter the tags in the workflow search box.

Locking Workflows

Use the locking tag.

Workflow Name	Description
Display all locks	Shows all locks.
Locking test	A test workflow that creates a lock.

Task Workflows

Use the tasks tag.

Workflow Name	Description

Orchestrator Workflows

Use the orchestrator and workflows tags in the workflow search box.

Workflow Name	Description
Refresh stale workflow runs in waiting state	Processes all workflow runs that are in waiting state for the specified remote server and updates the workflow state according to the remote workflow run. You can use this workflow if there is data loss between the workflow runs, for example, when there is loss of connectivity between the Automation Orchestrator servers.
Start workflows in a series	Runs a workflow multiple times in a series, one instance after the other. You provide workflow parameters in an array. You also provide a property list, with one property per workflow input, for each instance of the workflow that starts. The number of properties in the array define the number of workflow runs.
Start workflows in parallel	Runs a workflow multiple times, with different parameters. You provide workflow parameters in an array. You also provide a property list, with one property per workflow input, for each instance of the workflow that starts. The number of properties in the array define the number of workflow runs.

Tagging Workflows

Use the tagging tag.

Workflow Name	Description
Find objects by tag	Finds objects by the tags assigned to them. You provide the names and values of the tags and the workflow returns a list of the objects to which these tags apply.
List workflow tags	Lists the tags assigned to the workflow you specified as an input parameter.
Tag workflow	Assigns a tag to a workflow. You must specify the workflow you want to tag and the tag name and value.
