Create An Object

Create An Object allows you to create a new record in Workfront as a step in your Flow.

Note: Different object types have different required fields, so always make sure you are at least providing the minimum number of input fields. If you want to create an issue, in addition to a name for the issue, you will need to provide a valid project ID. This can be a dynamic field referenced from another step in your Flow, or manually typed into the input field.

Options

  • Your Workfront Objects (dropdown list):
    • Depending on which type of record you want to create, select an object that will have relevant information. If you want to create a Project, you should select Project from the dropdown list and then make sure you have access to data from previous steps to use when creating the Project.
  • Generate Fields? (dropdown list):
    • A toggle that specifies whether or not to generate fields from the previously selected Workfront object.

Input Fields

Any additional information that should be known about the input fields, i.e., there is something very different about these input fields relative to other input fields.

  • Standard Input Fields
    • Will generate a list of the standard fields associated with the object you have selected from the drop down list.
  • Custom Input Fields
    • Where applicable, will display any custom fields that are associated with the object you have selected from the drop down list.

Output Fields

Each new record will out put an ‘ID’ field. This ‘ID’ is the Workfront ID of that record and is the same as the ID you can find in the URL of any specific Workfront record.
