Instance Opening Script¶

Instance opening script is executed for every new workflow instance when initiated. This script may be useful to assign dynamically changing default values. (ex: assign current date to form value)

In script you can use $Instance to get or set initiated instance properties, $Initiator variable specifies who initiated the workflow instance, but variable can be null for the module type tasks.

Unlike task prework or postwork scripts $Xml variable is attached to the data model root element, not to the pool element.
