Add an Update Field Concatenations Action to a Transition

Overview

The Update Field Concatenations action allows Administrators to update object names beyond the Creation state.

The Incident name concatenations can now be automatically updated after they transition from the Triage state to the Open state.

Results from concatenation calculations are currently limited to the following:

  • Object Name, Single-line Text fields - 300 characters
  • Object Description, Multi-line Text fields - 20,000 characters

Note:
The Update Field Concatenations workflow action is only available for button triggers in Library and Assessment workflows.
