Notifications

Introduction

FLUX allows you to configure flows that send notifications containing data from previous tasks. By creating specialized notification tasks, you can automatically deliver email notifications to any recipient with customized content.

Overview

Notification functionality in FLUX enables you to:

• Build multi-task flows with integrated notification capabilities
• Send email notifications with data from any previous task in the flow
• Customize recipients, subjects, and email body content
• Access context variables and task results dynamically

Configuration

Setting Up a Notification Task

1. Create a task with the "Notification operations" class within your flow
2. Configure the notification parameters in the management script:
   • Recipient: Specify the email address(es) to receive the notification
   • Subject: Define the email subject line

Creating the Email Template

Create a dedicated model for your email that defines the body content. Within this model, you can reference:

• Variables from any task in the flow
• Task execution results
• Context variables available at the time of notification execution

Accessing Task Variables

Variable Syntax

To reference variables from other tasks in your flow, use the following syntax:

tasks.{id}.{method}.{result|status}

Available Methods

You can access data from these task methods:

• management_script
• process_model
• model_commands
• processing_model_out
• processing_script_out
• element_data_mapped

Context Variables

Context variables are accessible at the moment the notification task executes, allowing you to include real-time flow information in your notifications.
