The Manual Intervention module allows Cortex flows and processes to be run separately from any User Interactions. This allows a user to view and launch any pending UIs from a dashboard flow. By using this module, processes can be run with a Case Management style interaction.
This functionality is achieved by using the Cortex-Logging module. This module can also support Access Control, restricting different processes to certain Active Directory groups.
The module allows users to perform the following functionality:
- Pause a flow and wait for a User Interactions
- View all processes and if required, launch the UI for that process in a new tab
- Resume a flow from an opened UI flow
- Assign an AD Group to a Process execution
The following features are planned for v1.1:
- Email a link to the Dashboard flow to a user or group of users once the UI is pending.
- Send / Receive an email in place of a UI for a paused process
- Allow intergration with 3rd party UI
