  • v2.0.0 Release Notes
    • Create a new Set Process Variables node. The old version will continue to work, but must be swapped out for newer version to take advantage of the following updates:
    • Added two outputs:
    • Success: returns true unless exception was thrown
    • ErrorMessage: returns the exception message when Success = false
    • Now handles cdt version updates on nested cdts
    • Now leaves pvs or cdt fields unchanged instead of nullifying when encountering multiplicity, type, or field existance mismatches between source and targets (including fields within cdts)
