Send email on workflow transition

[Dexter]

Hi All,

Is it possible to setup actions on workflow transition, like send email to author ?

Is it also possible to setup actions when someone (reviewer) adds a comment to the document ?

Thanks

The first one is already in the published pending work list. And should be straight forward. Might be able to push it up to add in the next release.

The second one is harder. Right now the worflow doesn't have support for user input during execution. This is something we want to add but requires significant refactor. We need to add support for workflow forms and for workflow contexts (a means to store values in a workflow). What I can do is push up one or two of this requirements so that they can be tested by the community in upcomming releases and pave the way for reviewer style feature you mention.

I think I misread. You want the workflow to trigger when some add a document comment? If that's the case then yes, that is already supported and is done via "Transition triggers". You can connect a document event to a workflow transition. Screenshots attached.
