If you're using the internal list of a List Shared Asset in Process Flow, then the biggest issue becomes trying to get the path as to where the actual list resides. Let's assume that your List Shared Asset is pointing at a Global List in the Toolbox. To get the number of entries in a partition looks like this:

getstat(globallist("List1"), "PartitionContent", STAT_CURRENT, paritionID)

I am not having that point to a global list, can I use this?

getstat(getactivity(processFlow, "List"),"Content", STAT_CURRENT,1) to get # of entries on List with partition ID 1? Tried this, seems give incorrect results, it provides all the entries on the list. When using getstat(getactivity(processFlow, "List"),"Content", STAT_CURRENT), it gives me total entries currently on the list.

For a ProcessFlow list in a general flow, or if the list is marked "Global", you should use:

getstat(getactivity(processFlow, "List"), "PartitionContent", STAT_CURRENT, 0, partitionID)

For a ProcessFlow list in an FR or TE flow that is marked Local, you should use

getstat(getactivity(processFlow, "List"), "PartitionContent", STAT_CURRENT, instance, partitionID)

If you are trying to get the content of a particular partition, be sure to use "PartitionContent", and not just plain "Content".

I think this is a bug. It should actually work with:

getstat(getactivity(processFlow, "List"), "Content", STAT_CURRENT, current, partitionID)

Where current is the instance owner object.

@jordan.johnson can you confirm this?
