Procedure → Kickoff
AI-generatedOverview
This node operation is designed to kickoff a procedure in the Hudu system. It allows users to start a specific procedure by providing its ID and optionally attaching it to an asset or renaming it. This is useful in scenarios where automated workflows need to initiate procedures within Hudu, such as starting maintenance processes, onboarding tasks, or any predefined procedural workflows.
Use Case Examples
- Kickoff a procedure by specifying its Procedure ID to start a maintenance workflow.
- Attach a procedure to a specific asset by providing the Asset ID along with the procedure kickoff.
- Rename a procedure at the time of kickoff to customize its identification in the workflow.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Procedure ID | The ID of the procedure to kickoff, required to identify which procedure to start. |
| Additional Fields | Optional fields to provide extra details when kicking off the procedure, such as attaching an asset or renaming the procedure. |
