This tutorial demonstrates how to Enable/Disable custom Actions that was designed for Folder Entities. Visibility of Folder Entities’ Actions can be controlled with an Action Visibility Rules. Downside...
A data structure is a particular way of storing and organizing data in a computer so that it can be used efficiently. A data structure represents real or abstract objects through use of data members-basic...
Folder Extensions are custom data structures that also act as folders. Folder extensions can be generated with a default set of Create, Edit, Get and Delete methods, and can also be configured with custom actions using flows.
Folder extension actions are any actions that can be taken on a folder of that folder extension type. To create a new folder extension action in the Portal, navigate to the Folder Behavior Actions Folder...
Setting classification information for a flow designated as an action on an entity helps organize that flow within the entity's Action menu. This is useful if you have a lot of actions defined. Without...
Folder extension views are portal pages that can present unique views of folder extension data. To create a new folder extension view in the Portal, navigate to a Designer Folder, Folder Behavior Actions...
Folder extension actions can be removed by modifying the data structure in their respective Designer Folder. Custom folder extension actions can be secured with the Flow Designer by checking the users...
Folder entities are defined data structures (think "object") which can be added to a folder via the Add > [MyFolderEntity] action.
Folder entity actions are actions which can be taken upon a folder entity. Default folder entity actions can be removed or added by editing the data structure in System > Common Data Elements >...
Folder entity actions are actions which can be taken upon a folder entity. Custom folder entity actions are built in flows, and saved within a [MyFolderEntity] folder for the entity type, within a Designer...
This topic helps identify the relationship between the IDs for folders and their containing entities. About FolderID A FolderID is an ID that is used to uniquely identify a folder. Every folder...

A simple flow structure is a creates an entity that is not database-stored, intended for use in a flow only to temporarily define a piece of data. It is simply a data structure that is not stored. Its limitation is that it can't perform actions on itself or others. It relies on other components to manipulate it, and other entities to contain it. All you can do with it is create it and use it in the context of a flow. It will not persist beyond the execution of the flow in which it is used.
Custom data structures represent real or abstract objects by their use of data members - basic units of information which can be thought of as variables belonging to the object you wish to represent. Custom data structures can be created in the folder System > Common Data Elements > Data Structures.
Action Visibility Rule feature was implemented in Decisions 3.2.0. This feature allows administrators to remove any Entity actions using Rules. In order to accomplish this, Portal administrator...
JSON Schema defines the media type "application/schema+json", a JSON based format for defining the structure of JSON data. JSON Schema provides a contract for what JSON data is required for a given application...
XSD (XML Schema Definition), a Recommendation of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), specifies how to formally describe the elements in an Extensible Markup Language (XML) document. This description...
This tutorial demonstrates how to extend Flow with data that is coming from the database table. In Decisions 3.2 it is possible to interact with database tables from any Designer Folder. This can be...
Flows can be configured to use entities of any data type that are available including custom ones. To use an entity with a custom data type, check whether the required data type is available in the respective Designer Projects folder, or under the folder System > Common Data Elements > Data Structure (if not, create the data needed). Once this is done, the custom data type will be available for use in all flows.
By default, folder entities have pre-configured steps for creating, editing and deleting those entities from within a flow. These steps can be found in the Toolbox tab, under the category Integration...
Rules evaluate a data input and return an outcome that is dependent on whether the input satisfies the rule's conditions. Action Rules define specific actions (or flows) that will be run in either case, as opposed to the more typical True or False outcomes that are outputted by logical rules.
Flow execution data extensions are custom data structures that can be attached to process folders for reporting, or to provide contextual data throughout the life of a process.
A folder entity can have validation applied, set up in the form of rules or a flow created by the entity's action folder. Setting up validation rules is particularly useful if the Action menu is...
Folder entity actions are actions which can be taken upon a folder entity. Custom folder entity actions are built in flows, and saved within a [MyFolderEntity] folder for the entity type, within a Designer ...
This tutorial demonstrates how to create Extensions for Entities in Decisions. In Decisions 3.2 and higher it is possible to extend any type of Entity with custom Data Structures. Example: In...
Entity Events make it possible to run a flow upon the following events occurring to an entity: An example of an event that could occur on the saving and/or deleting of an entity is to send...
