Payload to time-limited store
The Advanced, other workflow component, Payload to time-limited store is related to the tenant setting, Time-limited persistent storage.
With this component you can temporarily store the current payload into a time-limited storage, that you have previously defined. A prerequisite is, that you first have created a time-limited persistent storage.
Example of this can be used
One way to use the time-limited store is to save the initial payload when the workflow starts with the component, Payload to time-limited store and then delete this again as the last thing in the workflow with the component, Delete from time-limited store. In this way the payload will be kept for a few days if the workflow should happen to fail.
The component has these parameters:
- Time-limited store
This is the time-limited store, that you have previously created in the tenant settings. You can select it via a drop down list or via an Xpath expression. - Unique key
This should be a unique key to identify the current payload. This can be used later if the stored document is later to be read from the store. This could e.g. be a unique document number. If a document with the same unique key is already stored in the store, then the previous document will be overwritten.
