Workflow Action - Workflow Attributes - Set Attribute Value

Action:

Set Attribute Value

Category:

Workflow Attributes

Version:

v1.0

Content:

While the name of this action is fairly descriptive, it may not be clear as to when you would use it. This action sets the contents of an attribute to either text you provide or the contents of another attribute. The power of setting it to text is that you can use Lava merge fields. This allows you to string together one or more attributes using Lava’s powerful formatting functions.

Setting an attribute to the contents of another attribute might seem a little redundant. However, there are times that you might expect an attribute value to change and you want to keep a copy of its previous value.

When using this action to set a Workflow attribute of type Person via the Text Value, you must return the GUID of the PersonAlias record, not the GUID of a Person record.
