Hi I have a situation where a third party application raises an event (it calls ARProcessEvent) and passes a string. I need to process the string by ly looking up a value based on the string using a javascript function. I want to do this in the simplest most convenient way possible.
So my idea was to do it like this (please correct me if there are better ways): A) Respond to event by creating an active link which is fired by Event (Execution Options, Event ticked). B) This active link grabs the text passed in $EVENTTYPE$ and $EVENTDATA$ variables and calls a call guide. C) Call guide contains an active link which uses the string text in $EVENTTYPE$ and $EVENTDATA$ and calls the javascript function and stores the result. D) After call guide runs active link that called call guide (ie orignal active link fired by event has a second If action which creates a Message using the result from step C) above like this: Hi $USER$ your message is $STORED_MESSAGE$ So my questions are: Is this the right way to do it? Are the $EVENTTYPE$ and $EVENTDATA$ variables which are generated from the first active link event available to the call guide active link? If not how do I pass the call guide active link the data? Can I just create a variable on the fly? Or does Remedy not work like that? If not do I store in a hidden field? What are the options? How do I use the result from the call guide active link by the other active link? Same sort of question as above? Any help would be much appreciated.
