  • GlideRecord.applyEncodedQuery -- found in activity definitions
    
    • This applies an encoded query to a record and sets it's values.
      
  • task.wf_activity
    
    • Note: the wf_activity field is disabled in the dictionary, so is not visible in the form or list views. But it's still valid to use in a script.
      
    • Clearing this out on tasks when "restarting" workflow will reuse tasks, if you clear this out, it will make new.
      
    • I had a ask where a customer wanted a "Revert to New" UI Action inside a Change record but wanted to keep the history of Closed Incomplete Change Tasks to show that a change failed and had to be restarted
      Every time I'd restart the workflow it would re-use the last made change tasks and overwrite information that we wanted to keep for history's sake. -- Lee Hollister
