  • Article

Applies to: SharePoint Foundation 2010

Contains the information necessary for a declarative rules-based, code-free workflow editor, such as Microsoft SharePoint Designer 2010, to generate a workflow template in SharePoint Foundation.

<Template
  BaseID="Text"
  DocLibID="Text"
  XomlID="Text" | "Integer"
  XomlHref="Text"
  XomlVersion="Text"
  RulesID="Text" | "Integer"
  RulesHref="Text"
  RulesVersion="Text"
>
</Template>

Attributes

Attribute

Description

DocLibID

Required Text. Specifies the GUID of the document library that contains the workflow markup (.xoml) file and, if necessary, the rules markup (xoml.rules) file.

BaseID

Required Text. Specifies the GUID used to uniquely identify this workflow. The BaseID is the same for all versions of the workflow.

XomlID

Optional Integer. An optional way to uniquely identify the workflow markup file. This attribute must equal the ID property of the item in the document library.

If present, this attribute is used, rather than the XomlHref attribute.

XomlVersion

Required Text. Specifies the version of the workflow markup file to use when creating an instance of this workflow.

XomlHref

Required Text. Specifies the path to the workflow markup file. The path specified must be relative to the location of the workflow configuration file.

RulesID

Optional Integer. An optional way to uniquely identify the workflow rules file. This attribute must equal the ID property of the item in the document library.

If present, this attribute is used, rather than the RulesHref attribute.

RulesVersion

Required Text. Specifies the version of the workflow rules file, in there is one, to use when creating an instance of this workflow.

RulesHref

Required Text. Specifies the path to the workflow rules markup file. The path specified must be relative to the location of the workflow configuration file.

Child Elements

Remarks

Applications created to work as a declarative rules-based, code-free workflow editor can use the AssociateWorkflowMarkup(String, String) method of the websvcWebPartPages Web Service to create a workflow template and associate it to a SharePoint list specifying a workflow markup file, a workflow configuration file, and optionally, a workflow rules markup file.

For more information about creating an application that can act as a declarative rules-based, code-free workflow editor, see Creating Declarative, No-Code Workflow Editors.

Example

The following example shows a Template element for a workflow configuration.

<Template
    BaseID="{68B99644-EDCE-4988-9D11-7FD5CCAE09CC}"
    DocLibID="{74FAE22C-0176-46DF-AA12-988CE79C8889}"
    XomlHref="Workflows/Notify Me/Notify Me.xoml"
    XomlVersion="V3.0"
    RulesHref="Workflows/Notify Me/Notify Me.xoml.rules"
    RulesVersion="V3.0"
