Displaying message to the user.

[arkimp]

i am using Analytical app and calling Macro's from main work flow(analytical app).  In the macro i have a field " Log" .  This field value i need to populate to the user after successful execution of the work flow. How can i achieve this?

I think we can use an Event workflow to show the message.

Refer below for details.

Hi @arkimp!

@Qiu's suggestion to use events is good, however, I wanted to add that you cannot use events inside your macro. 

You may try passing the "Log" value out of the macro through a Macro Output tool. You can then use the Message tool or Events in your main workflow.

Inside the macro:

In your main workflow:

Try this out and let us know if it works for you.
