Linking actions in presentations
This recipe will show how to further improve and automate presentations in workflows by linking actions into them. This is done to present to the user only a specific list of options derived on runtime.
Getting ready
We will create a new workflow and reuse the action getElementFromArray, which we created in the recipe Creating actions in Chapter 6, Advanced Programming (see the com.packtpub.Orchestrator-Cookbook2ndEdition module in the example pack).
You should be familiar with the topics we introduced in the recipe Workflow presentations in this chapter.
