I have a list in my Process Flow, and I want to release a specific token from it. I have a label on the puller token that has that token to pull's id. How do I set up the query in the "pull..." activity? Is it just-
Label: labelTokenToPull ? (I tried this but it's not clear if it's working as I expected.)
Or do I need to use a
"WHERE <something> = puller.labelTokenToPull"
If the latter, how do I reference it i.e. what relpaces <something>?
Thanks,
Craig
The WHERE statement is what you need, just as you've written it. If the token on the list has a label called myID, then you would replace <something> with myID.
WHERE myID = puller.labelTokenToPull
The query will look at the List for any fields with the name myID. If none are found then it will look for a myID label on the pushed value (in this case tokens).
OK, I see how that would work. So, IIUC the trick is to label the token on the list with its own ID so I can reference that label in the Pull... activity; I can't just reference the token directly from the puller token.
Thanks,

If you had a label on the the puller that points to the token you want to pull, then you can say:
WHERE value = puller.tokenToPull
If I'm reading you right, if you are just looking for a token with a given ID number (the ID number that the software assigns automatically, not some custom number created by you) you could do a WHERE query like this:
WHERE gettokenid(value) = puller.IDYouAreLookingFor
It's the same as what Matt is describing, but just skips either setting up a Label on the tokens that get pushed to the list, or a custom Field on the list itself
