Prepare a subflow This example describes the process of preparing a subflow for use in a parent workflow. In the editor, open and check out the workflow that you want to use as a subflow. In the title bar, click the menu icon and select Edit Inputs. In the Workflow Inputs window, click New in the Variables list. Add a new variable depending on the type of values that it is going to store. The following example sets up a string value. Click Submit. Close the Workflows Inputs dialog. Create a Run Script activity on the subflow. Set the value from the parameter to a field on the current form. This is important because the Notification activity can only pull values from the current variable and not from the newly added variable. The following example sets the value in the Description field. current.description = workflow.inputs.bluesubvariable; Create a new field on the request form but do not display the field. This serves as temporary storage. Create a Notification activity on the subflow. Use ${description} in the subject to return the value from the field. This is what the subflow would look like:
