WeDa Private Deployment System Workflow Usage Guide

This document will guide you through configuring and using the system workflow functionality in the WeDa private deployment environment.

Feature Overview​

System Workflow is an approval process solution provided by the WeDa platform, featuring the following characteristics:

Core Features
  • API Encapsulation: Encapsulates commonly used OpenAPI interfaces for approval processes
  • Simplified Development: Shields complex interface calls during approval page rendering
  • Ready to Use: Provides pre-configured approval process templates
  • Flexible Extension: Supports custom approval processes and business logic

Configuration Steps​

Step 1: Obtain Authentication Information​

First, you need to obtain the system's SecretId and SecretKey for API call authentication.

  1. Log in to the WeDa private deployment management console
  2. Go to Console → Environment Configuration
  3. View and record the SecretId and SecretKey

Obtain Authentication Information

Security Notice

Please keep the SecretId and SecretKey secure and avoid disclosure to unauthorized personnel.

Step 2: Create System Workflow​

Create a system workflow in the WeDa low-code development platform:

  1. Go to Extended Capabilities → Resource Links → APIs Connector
  2. Click New Connector
  3. Select System Workflow type

Create System Workflow

Step 3: Configure Connector Information​

In the system workflow configuration interface, fill in the necessary connection information:

Configuration Item Description:

  • Connector Name: Set an easily recognizable name for the workflow connector
  • SecretId: Enter the SecretId obtained in Step 1
  • SecretKey: Enter the SecretKey obtained in Step 1
  • Service Address: The system will automatically configure this, usually no modification needed

Configure Connector Information

Step 4: View Available APIs Methods​

After configuration is complete, the system will automatically generate available workflow APIs methods:

System Workflow APIs Methods

Main APIs methods include:

  • Create Approval Process: Initiate new approval processes
  • Query Process Status: Get the current status of approval processes
  • Approval Operations: Execute approval operations such as approve, reject, etc.
  • Process Management: Query and modify process configurations

External System Integration​

OpenAPI Interface Calls​

If you need to call approval process OpenAPI interfaces in external systems, please refer to the detailed interface documentation:

👉 Approval Process OpenAPI Call Guide

This documentation contains:

  • Complete API interface list
  • Request parameters and response format descriptions
  • Authentication methods and signature algorithms
  • Code examples and best practices

Best Practices​

Usage Recommendations
  1. Reasonable Process Planning: Design approval processes based on actual business needs, avoid excessive complexity
  2. Permission Management: Properly configure approver permissions to ensure process security
  3. Monitoring and Alerts: Regularly check process execution status and handle exceptions promptly

Summary​

Through the above steps, you have successfully:

  1. ✅ Obtained system authentication information
  2. ✅ Created a system workflow connector
  3. ✅ Configured necessary connection parameters
  4. ✅ Understood available APIs methods
  5. ✅ Mastered external system integration methods

Now you can fully utilize the powerful system workflow functionality in the WeDa private deployment environment to provide complete approval process support for your business applications.
