Using "release tokens" activity to pull from multiple process flows

Hello,

I am attempting to preempt tokens in multiple process flows (general and task executors). Is this possible in the first place? I have attached an example model, where a series of activities in a general process flow are used to preempt tokens from a task executor flow.

When the "release token" activity is fired, I get an error saying that the destination (for the preempted tokens) is invalid. Is there a syntax error somewhere or is this just not possible?

Thank you

Hi @Patrick Crowley,

It is not possible to pull tokens from other Process flows using the "Release Token" activity. However if you can put the activities on the same page, it should work fine.

See the attached model:
