Send to process

I have a web server input that trigers another process with “send to process” plugin (process 2), and I want to return to the browser that the process (process 2) has finished, is this possible?

Hello iBaldie,

The Send to Process task does not permit this, as it simply passes on the data to the new process and exits.

In this sort of case, you would use a Subprocess to do the job, if you need to execute the same tasks from multiple processes. Simply create the subprocess and use the “Go Sub” Process Logic task to call it.

Note that this means the browser will have to wait for the subprocess to finish before receiving any response so if it takes a long time, the connection might time out.
