Question

Workflow Task Variable does not render the string value as URL

Workflow Task Variable does not render the string value as URL.

From our java code, we are returning a string which is a url. This is URL is being displayed in the value of the variable Intarsys URL. This was clickable URL and was working in Windchill 12. 

After upgrading to Windchill 13, the string value in the UI is no more hyperlink(not clickable)

I have tried changing the global variable inside workflow to java.net.URL. But in this case, the task itself is not getting generated. 

How to render the URL so that it is clickable. As in, it should open in a new window.

Hi ​@SriKrishn,

When the variable is set to the URL data type, you mentioned that the task is not being generated.
What errors do you see in the BGMS logs?
Have you checked why the task is not being generated in the Workflow Process Manager?
How are you generating the URL? Are you using any custom code?
