Show existing process
The Show existing process action displays a past process instance in the process panel on the page. It finds the process container for the chosen process, loads the saved data for the given Track ID, and shows that process state and data to the user.
Properties and Explanation Here are the steps to follow in order to use the Show existing process action:
Select Process: Choose the process to show. This selects which process container on the page will be used.
Track ID: Provide the Track ID of the process instance you want to view. This field accepts a formula (uses the Formula Editor) so you can pass a static ID, a form field value, or a calculated expression. If left blank the action tries to get a Track ID from the clicked row or the current scope.
How it works when run:
The action looks for the process container on the page that matches the chosen process.
If a Track ID is provided (or found from the clicked row), it loads that process instance and updates the process panel to show its state and data.
If the Track ID is missing or the process data is not found, the action shows a short message to the user.
Full Configuration Example Below is a screenshot-style description of the Show existing process configuration, showing all properties set:
Select Process: InvoiceApprovalProcess
Track ID: ${selectedRow.TRACK_ID} (example formula using the clicked row)
In this example, when the rule runs the action finds the InvoiceApprovalProcess container on the page, evaluates the Track ID formula (taking the TRACK_ID from the clicked row), loads that process instance, and displays its state and form data to the user. If the process cannot be found the user sees a short notification.
