Conditions

Whether or not an action is processed can be controlled by the use of conditions. A condition must evaluate to true in order for the action to be processed. If the condition evaluates to false then a log entry stating such is created and the current custom workflow action is not processed.

Each condition node has the following properties:

Table 28. Condition properties
Property	Description
DataType	The data type of the property being compared.
Value1	The left side of the comparison.
Value2	The right side of the comparison.
Operator	The operation to perform. Options depend on the DataType.
IgnoreCase	This is only valid for the string DataType. This property instructs the service to perform any string operations case insensitively.

The type of operations available depends on the DataType property.

The following DataTypes are available:

Table 29. DataTypes
DataType	Description
String	This condition is performed on a string.
Guid	This condition is performed on a Guid.
Version	The condition is performed on a version.

The following operations are available for a String DataType:

Table 30.
String operator	Description
equal	Determines whether or not Value1 and Value2 have the same value.
not equal	Determines whether or not Value1 and Value2 are different.
contains	Determines whether or not Value2 is present in Value1
not contains	Determines whether or not Value2 is missing from Value1.
starts with	Determines whether or not Value1 starts with Value2.
not starts with	Determines whether or not Value1 does not start with Value2.
ends with	Determines whether or not Value1 ends with Value2.
not ends with	Determines whether or not Value1 does not end with Value2.

The following operations are available for a Guid DataType:

Table 31. Guid operators
Guid operator	Description
equal	Determines whether or not Value1 and Value2 have the same value.
not equal	Determines whether or not Value1 and Value2 are different.

The following operations are available for a Version DataType:

Table 32. Version operators
Version operator	Description
equal	Determines whether or not Value1 and Value2 have the same value.
not equal	Determines whether or not Value1 and Value2 are different.
greater than	Determines whether or not Value1 is greater than Value2.
greater than or equals	Determines whether or not Value1 is greater than or equal to Value2.
less than	Determines whether or not Value1 is lesser than Value2.
less than or equals	Determines whether or not Value1 is lesser than or equal to Value2.

The available logical operators include:

Table 33. Operators
Operator	Description
And	Logically ANDs to conditions.
Or	Logically ORs to conditions.

The logical operators ‘And’ and ‘Or’ function sequentially and grouping is not supported. For example:

Condition1 And Condition2 Or Condition3

would be processed as:

(Condition1 And Condition2) Or Condition3

not as:

Condition1 And (Condition2 Or Condition3)

To use a logical “And” or “Or” operator, specify a new Condition with only the Operator property.

For example:

Example of a complete pre-action

The following example demonstrates a pre-action that creates a CheckIn directory below the GPOSettingsReports directory provided that the name of the version controlled object contains an underscore and the version is less than 4.5 or the comment ends with “_AMER”.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<Executable>c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe</Executable>

<Parameters>/C mkdir "c:\GPOSettingsReports\CheckIn"</Parameters>

</CustomWorkflowActions>

Troubleshooting custom workflow actions

Because custom workflow actions are performed in the background by the GPOADmin service, they will not be visible from the interface. However, you can use the logs to assess any issues. When a custom workflow action is processed, the Standard Output and Error streams are redirected and logged as part of the server actions provided the Debug logging option is enabled.


	NOTE: Depending on the custom workflow action, there can be a large amount of data written to the logs. It is strongly recommended that all custom workflow actions be thoroughly tested by a user who has access to the GPOADmin server logs.

Event ID	Source
2013	GPOADmin server process – Information
2014	GPOADmin server process – Errors
2015	Custom Workflow Action process – Standard Output stream
2016	Custom Workflow Actions process – Error stream
