Output of workflow

Workflow invokes with the Invoke tab name:

• Name: Optional invoke name.

Common invoke arguments

• WaitFor: A logical expression of possibly multiple outputs/events.
• Unless: Delay termination output/event. Usually used with timeout/delay.
• SkipIf: A logical expression to skip the invoke execution.
• OnlyIf: A logical expression to execute invoke conditionally.
• DelayUntil: Absolute invoke execution time.
• DelayBefore: Invoke execution delay interval (delay before invoke starts executing).
• Delay: Synonym for DelayBefore.
• Timeout: Invoke type dependent hint. Different invoke types may interpret it differently.
• DelayAfterInvoke result delay interval (delay after invoke has completed).
