Hello,

Is it possible to pass parameters to oozie subworkflows from the parent workflow actions using the actionData funciton, i.e. ${wf:actionData('ParentWFAction')['PARAM_NAME']}?

Thanks,

Martin

Hi Harsh, thanks for the follow up, though it's not 100% clear from the response what needs to be done.

However, I was able to figure out the following & posting here for the benefit of the community. In the subworkflow task, you can use the Job Properties box to achieve this, e.g.

Property Name = PARAM1

Property Value = ${wf:actionData('ParentWFAction')['PARAM_NAME']}

Then in the subworkflow itself, you will be able to access the value as ${PARAM1}.

Regards,

Martin

Hi, How can I get the status of the workflow and the execution time taken by the workflow through these commands,

${wf:actionData('ParentWFAction')['PARAM_NAME']}

Hi sairamvj, I would suggest you open a new thread for your question, as it is not related to this topic of this thread.
