Workflow Input Validation
Workflows may optionally validate their input by adding a validate member that takes as a
parameter an object that contains the workflow parameters as members. The validate function
should return an object where each member is named with the parameter that failed validation,
and each member's value is the validation failure message to be displayed to the user.
EXAMPLE 23
To extend our example to give a crisp error if the user attempts to create an extant share:
var workflow = {
name: 'Create share',
description: 'Creates a new share in a business unit',
parameters: {
name: {
label: 'Name of new share',
type: 'String'
},
unit: {
label: 'Business unit',
type: 'ChooseOne',
options: [ 'development', 'finance', 'qa', 'sales' ],
optionlabels: [ 'Development', 'Finance',
}
},
validate: function (params) {
