Retrieve data
Retrieves data that has been stored using the action Store data.
Use the actions Store data and Retrieve data to pass data between workflow instances.
Options within this action
Workflow instance to retrieve from
The instance ID of the workflow to retrieve data from. Select either:
- Current Workflow: This will retrieve the information from the current workflow.
- A workflow variable: Use this to specify a specific workflow instance ID that is set in a workflow variable.
Note: Using the Start Workflow workflow action within the current workflow, a new workflow can be started. The instance ID of the new workflow can then be stored in a workflow variable which then can be selected. This can be used by a parent workflow to start a child workflow and return a value to the parent workflow.
Item to retrieve
The same value that was specified in the 'Store as' field in the Store data workflow action of the workflow instance to retrieve from.
E.g. If the 'Store as' value specified in the Store data workflow action is 'KeyValue', the Item to retrieve value must be 'KeyValue'.

Select the workflow variable that the data will be stored in.
