Class: InitializeWorkflow

coresdk.workflow_activation.InitializeWorkflow

Initialize a new workflow

Properties

arguments

arguments: $Properties[]

Inputs to the workflow code


attempt

attempt: number

Starting at 1, the number of times we have tried to execute this workflow


continuedFailure

Optional continuedFailure: null | $Properties

If this workflow was a continuation and that continuation failed, the details of that.


continuedFromExecutionRunId

continuedFromExecutionRunId: string

Run id of the previous workflow which continued-as-new or retired or cron executed into this workflow, if any.


continuedInitiator

continuedInitiator: ContinueAsNewInitiator

If this workflow was a continuation, indicates the type of continuation.


cronSchedule

cronSchedule: string

If this workflow runs on a cron schedule, it will appear here


cronScheduleToScheduleInterval

Optional cronScheduleToScheduleInterval: null | $Properties

For a cron workflow, this contains the amount of time between when this iteration of the cron workflow was scheduled and when it should run next per its cron_schedule.


firstExecutionRunId

firstExecutionRunId: string

This is the very first run id the workflow ever had, following continuation chains.


headers

headers: Object

Used to add metadata e.g. for tracing and auth, meant to be read and written to by interceptors.

Index signature

▪ [k: string]: $Properties


identity

identity: string

Identity of the client who requested this execution


lastCompletionResult

Optional lastCompletionResult: null | $Properties

If this workflow was a continuation and that continuation completed, the details of that.


memo

Optional memo: null | $Properties

User-defined memo


parentWorkflowInfo

Optional parentWorkflowInfo: null | $Properties

If this workflow is a child, information about the parent


priority

Optional priority: null | $Properties

Priority of this workflow execution


randomnessSeed

randomnessSeed: Long

The seed must be used to initialize the random generator used by SDK. RandomSeedUpdatedAttributes are used to deliver seed updates.


retryPolicy

Optional retryPolicy: null | $Properties

This workflow's retry policy


rootWorkflow

Optional rootWorkflow: null | $Properties

Contains information about the root workflow execution. It is possible for the namespace to be different than this workflow if using OSS and cross-namespace children, but this information is not retained. Users should take care to track it by other means in such situations.

The root workflow execution is defined as follows:

  1. A workflow without parent workflow is its own root workflow.
  2. A workflow that has a parent workflow has the same root workflow as its parent workflow.

See field in WorkflowExecutionStarted for more detail.


searchAttributes

Optional searchAttributes: null | $Properties

Search attributes created/updated when this workflow was started


startTime

Optional startTime: null | $Properties

When the workflow execution started event was first written


workflowExecutionExpirationTime

Optional workflowExecutionExpirationTime: null | $Properties

The absolute time at which the workflow will be timed out. This is passed without change to the next run/retry of a workflow.


workflowExecutionTimeout

Optional workflowExecutionTimeout: null | $Properties

Total workflow execution timeout including retries and continue as new.


workflowId

workflowId: string

The workflow id used on the temporal server


workflowRunTimeout

Optional workflowRunTimeout: null | $Properties

Timeout of a single workflow run.


workflowTaskTimeout

Optional workflowTaskTimeout: null | $Properties

Timeout of a single workflow task.


workflowType

workflowType: string

The identifier the lang-specific sdk uses to execute workflow code
