Elements XS activities for Geocortex Workflow
npm install @geocortex/workflow-activities-elementsxs

This project contains activities for interacting with the Elements XS REST API in a Geocortex Workflow.
To use the Elements XS activities in Geocortex Workflow Designer you need to register an activity pack and then add the activities to a workflow.
1. Sign in to ArcGIS Online or Portal for ArcGIS
1. Go to My Content
1. Select Add Item > An application
- Type: Web Mapping
- Purpose: Ready To Use
- API: JavaScript
- URL: The URL to this activity pack manifest
- Use https://unpkg.com/@geocortex/workflow-activities-elementsxs/activitypack.json for the latest version
- Use https://unpkg.com/@geocortex/workflow-activities-elementsxs@0.1.0/activitypack.json for a specific version

- Tags: Must include geocortex-workflow-activity-pack
1. Reload Geocortex Workflow Designer
1. The Elements XS activities will now appear in the activity toolbox in an Elements XS category
1. Establish a connection to the Elements XS service
1. To connect to the Elements XS service as an application:
1. Add the Authenticate App activity to a workflow
1. Set the URL input to the root URL of your Elements XS server. For example, https://salesapi.novotx.com.
1. Set the AppName, CompanyAccount and Secret inputs
1. To connect to the Elements XS service as a user:
1. Add the Authenticate User activity to a workflow
1. Set the URL input to the root URL of your Elements XS server. For example, https://salesapi.novotx.com.
1. Set the Username and Password inputs
- IMPORTANT: secrets and passwords are credentials that should not be hard coded into workflows. These values should be acquired by the workflow at runtime from the end user or from another secure system.
1. Use the Elements XS service
1. Add one of the other Elements XS activities to the workflow. For example, Get Work Item.
1. Set the Service input of the activity to be the output of the Authenticate App|User activity
- Typically this would use an expression like =$xsService1.service
1. Supply any additional inputs to the activity
1. Supply the result output of the activity to the inputs of other activities in the workflow
1. Run the workflow
This project was bootstrapped with the Geocortex Workflow SDK. Before you can use your activity pack in the Geocortex Workflow Designer, you will need to register the activity pack.
Inside the newly created project, you can run some built-in commands:
Interactively generate a new activity or form element.
Runs the project in development mode. Your activity pack will be available at http://localhost:5000/main.js. The HTTPS certificate of the development server is a self-signed certificate that web browsers will warn about. To work around this open https://localhost:5000/main.js in a web browser and allow the invalid certificate as an exception. For creating a locally-trusted HTTPS certificate see the Configuring a HTTPS Certificate section on the Geocortex Developer Center.
Builds the activity pack for production to the build folder. It optimizes the build for the best performance.
Your custom activity pack is now ready to be deployed!
See the section about deployment in the Geocortex Developer Center for more information.
