Introduction

This Cloud Worflow Console (CWF) Console provides the ability to execute RightScale Cloud Workflow code (RCL) directly against the CWF engine without having to use a CAT file. CWF Console only works with RCL code, you can't paste in an entire CAT (it doesn't take any declarations). Plugins cannot be tested in the CWF Console

Tips

  • If you want to see the value of a variable/resource, return it from your main definition – it will show up as an Output when the process is over. Alternatively, you could use a global variable ($$) or resource collection (@@) and it will show up while the process is running on the Process Info Tab.
