Using External Task approach could I run some scripts (like .cmd or .sh) on remote machine?

I have to implement some kind of workflows which contain start of operation system dependent scripts on some steps of workflow. (.sh or .bat scripts)
I hope to implement this using External Task.
Is it possible?
Because there are not enough information about External Task.
Thanks in advance!

Hi @Yura_Tym,

you can find all information about external tasks in the User Guide. It is a powerful concept that allows you to have workers (e.g., external/remote services, microservices) which poll specific tasks and do the work externally.

So you can use them to do any kind of work, also to execute scripts.

Does this help you?

Best regards,
Philipp
