What These Characteristics Require for Workflow Orchestration
The multi-source, decentralized nature of coal mine production document data requires workflow orchestration to set up multi-node data pulling, connecting underground monitoring systems, inspection terminals, and dispatch ledger systems. Differences in data update frequencies require workflows to support both scheduled triggering and real-time triggering modes. Set short-interval polling for real-time data, and scheduled synchronization per shift for shift report-type data. Dedicated fields and units require the workflow’s variable extraction node to add format verification rules. These rules ensure data such as gas concentration and ventilation volume match their corresponding units, preventing unit errors in generated documents. The operation number, as a unique identifier, must be automatically generated at the workflow start node or synchronized from upstream systems to ensure consistent data association across the entire process.
How to Configure the Settings
| Configuration Item | Recommended Value | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Trigger Mode | Dual mode: real-time triggering + scheduled triggering | Covers data sources with different update frequencies; pull real-time data on demand, synchronize shift report-type data on a scheduled basis |
variables configuration | Include core fields such as operation number, gas concentration, ventilation volume | Matches required placeholders in coal mine production document templates to ensure accurate generated content |
| Node Timeout Setting | 600 seconds | Underground operation systems have significant network latency fluctuations, reserve sufficient response time |
nodeId configuration | Assign a unique identifier to each data pulling node | Accurately distinguish return data from different post systems, avoid variable overwriting or confusion |
| Global Variable Verification Rules | Match verification by field unit | Ensure extracted detection data includes correct units, such as gas concentration matching %VOL |
| Scheduled Trigger Cycle | Calibrated based on actual measurements | Adapt to document generation requirements for different cycles such as shift reports and monthly reports |
Three Common Mistakes
- Phenomenon: After modifying the workflow associated with a release channel, generated documents still use the old logic. Cause: Failed to re-associate the release channel after updating the workflow, or the release channel cached the old version configuration.
- Phenomenon: The process prompts "Failed to obtain global variables" after starting. Cause: Did not declare global variable dependencies in the
variablesconfiguration, or upstream nodes did not correctly pass variable values. - Phenomenon: After the process initiates a third-party API request, returned data is not correctly written to variables. Cause: The request node did not configure correct variable mapping rules, and did not correspond API return fields to placeholders in
variables.
How to Confirm the Configuration Is Complete
- Trigger test: Manually trigger the workflow, verify that the generated documents include all required fields, and that field units match actual detection data.
- Variable verification: View the process log to confirm that all variables in
variableshave been correctly extracted and assigned, with no null values or format errors. - Release channel verification: Modify the workflow configuration, re-trigger the process, and confirm that the release channel receives updated document content.
- Third-party interface test: Initiate an API request at the process start node, verify that returned data is correctly written to specified variables, with no data loss or format abnormalities.
