Description

Returns the value of an activity attribute in a process. Use the correct function for your attribute type. If the attribute is a Number or Date type, then the appropriate function translates the number/date value to a text-string representation using the attribute format.

Note: Use GetActivityAttrText() for Form, URLs, lookups and document attribute types.

Arguments (input)

itemtype	A valid item type.
itemkey	A string generated from the application object's primary key. The string uniquely identifies the item within an item type. The item type and key together identify the process. See: CreateProcess.

Note: Pass #SYNCH as the itemkey to create a forced synchronous process. See: Synchronous, Asynchronous, and Forced Synchronous Processes.

actid	The activity ID for a particular usage of an activity in a process definition. Also referred to as the activity ID of the node.
aname	The internal name of an activity attribute, for GetActivityAttrText(), GetActivityAttrNumber(), and GetActivityAttrDate().
name	The internal name of an activity attribute, for GetActivityAttrEvent().
