setMessage

Changes the message of the Step that is currently being evaluated. Note that the message in the Flow UI maynot change immediately upon the command's evaluation as the UI has its own message refresh rate which islikely to not keep up with the speed of the logic evaluation.

Attributes

message

Required

Value type

EL-evaluated

No

String

Yes

The resolved value of this attribute is set as the Step's newmessage.
If not defined, the message will be a blank string.

Examples

Unlike the messages written into the Steps themselves, the setMessage command can set messagesincluding variable values since its message attribute is EL-evaluated.

Greet the user running the Flow:

CODE
<setMessage message="Hello ${UserInfo.fullName}">

Provide information of loop progress:

CODE
<forEach value="${longCollection}" var="item" varStatus="status"><setMessage message="Processing item ${status.count} of ${longCollection.size()}">
