Save Token Context

Overview and Key Concepts

The Save Token Context activity saves the current activity context of one or more tokens to a user-defined label on those tokens. The saved context includes the token's current activity, as well as any activity-related data. For example, if a token is in a Delay activity, it will save off the total delay time as well as how far into the delay the token is currently.

The Save Token Context activity is used for process flow preemption. See Preemption for information on how to implement preemption.

Connectors

The Save Token Context activity only allows one connector out. See Adding and Connecting Activities for more information.
