Work with custom services

You can lock and unlock, open and modify, copy, and delete a custom service. You can also view custom service versions, revert to a previous version and delete versions of a custom service. You can tag a custom service.

To work with custom services, navigate to Workflow > Custom services. The Custom services list page appears. Locate the custom service.

Unlock a custom service

Whenever a custom service is released, it is locked by default so that other resources cannot modify it. You can unlock a custom service to allow modification.

In the custom services list, on the context menu of the custom service to unlock, click Unlock. The custom service is unlocked and is available for modification.

You can lock a custom service again.

Modify a custom service

You can modify and delete a custom service. When you delete a custom service, all the versions are also deleted.

  1. On the list of custom services, click the custom service to modify.
    The custom service opens in a new browser tab.
  2. Make changes as needed.
  3. Save or release the custom service.

Delete a custom service

In the custom services list, on the context menu of the custom service to delete, click Delete. On confirmation, the selected custom service and all its versions are deleted.

You cannot delete a custom service that is in use.

Copy a custom service

Create a copy of custom service instead of creating it from scratch. Once a copy is created, you can modify and customize it to suit your requirement.

  1. On the context menu of the custom service to copy, click Copy.
    A copy of the custom service prefixed with "Copy 1 of" to the <custom service name> appears on the Custom service list page.
  2. Click to open the copy of the new custom service.
    The custom service opens in a new browser tab.
  3. Make changes as needed, such as rename the custom service or change the properties.
  4. Click Save.

Open a custom service version

You can open a custom service version in a read-only mode, revert to a previous version if it is not the latest version, and delete a version.

View a custom service version

  1. In the custom services list, on the context menu of the custom service to view versions for, click Versions.
  2. On the list of versions, click the row for the version to view.

    The selected custom service version opens in a read-only mode.

Revert to a custom service version

You can revert a custom service to create a new version based on an earlier version. All the items including variables, activities, resources and properties of the selected version are available in the newer version.

  1. On the context menu of the custom service to view versions for, click Versions.
    The list of versions available for the selected custom service appear.
  2. On the context menu of the custom service version to revert to, click Revert.
    On confirmation (save or release), the custom service version is reverted to the selected version.

    On saving the custom service, a minor version is created. For example, if you revert to on version 4 and choose to save, a minor version 4.01 is created. If you revert to on version 4 and choose to release, version 5 is created.

Delete a custom service version

  1. On the context menu of the custom service to view versions for, click Versions.
    The list of versions available for the selected custom service appear.
