Log point
The log point can for example be used to measure time or debug workflows. Log points capture the value of the checked variables and can be stored in a database thru a connected workflow in system events.
Download a basic log point workflow and a Sql server database here: Log Point Workflow - Sql Server 2012 Log Point Workflow - Sql Server 2014
If needed Sql server express can be downloaded here:
Restore the database backup in sql server express management studio.
Create a connector to the database.
Import the machine workflow (LogPointWorkflow) in the Flow studio.
In Environment -> System Events, pick the machine workflow (LogPointWorkflow) for the log point system event and choose a user that will execute the log point system event.
Now should data be logged when the workflow steps over a log point.
1. Create a machine workflow. This workflow will run every time a workflow steps over a log point.
Use in-parameters to get the log point data into the machine workflow. Download the example above to see how the in-parameters should be configured or look at the picture of the workflow below.
Create a record variable named LogPoint, with variable; Name, TimeStamp, WorkflowName and a table Data with variable Key and Value.
Use a connector to the database where the logged data will be stored. Download the example above to get a database (other types of databases can also be used).
2. Go to Environment -> System Events, and pick the machine workflow for the log point system event and choose a user that will execute the log point system event.
3. Add log points in workflows to log data.
