RapidIdentity Administrators' and Users' Guide

Connect (Advanced) Action

Use this feature to run an advanced action set through Connect. An Advanced Connect Action Set generates output results to be consumed by a subsequent expression within the workflow, and must be configured before the workflow can contain it.

An Advanced Connect Action Set is expected to return a valid JSON string; the workflow engine parses this JSON and makes the key/value pairs required later in the workflow.

Example

If Connect returns {"key1":"value1","key2":"value2"}, the values can be used in workflow expressions in subsequent workflow actions. For example %{dss.key1} would resolve as value1 and %{dss.key2} would resolve as value2.
