Attributes and Elements

The following sections describe attributes, child elements, and parent elements.

Attributes

None.

Child Elements

Element Description
<argument> An argument associated with an activity state query.

Parent Elements

Element Description
<activityStateQuery> Represents a configuration element that is used to track requests to cancel a child activity by the parent activity. The query is necessary for a tracking participant to subscribe to cancel request record objects.

Remarks

One unique feature of an ActivityStateQuery is the ability to extract data when tracking the execution of a workflow. This provides additional context when accessing the tracking records post execution. You can use the <arguments>, <states> and <states> elements to extract any variable or argument from any activity in a workflow. The following example shows an activity state query that extracts variables and arguments when the activity’s Closed tracking record is emitted. Variables and arguments can be extracted only with an ActivityStateRecord and thus are subscribed to within a tracking profile using <activityStateQuery>.

<activityStateQuery activityName="SendEmailActivity">  
  <states>  
    <state name="Closed"/>  
  </states>  
  <variables>  
    <variable name="FromAddress"/>  
  </variables>  
  <arguments>  
    <argument name="Result"/>  
  </arguments>  
</activityStateQuery>
