How to override AutoSubmitAction for sitecore workflow

'm trying to customize sample workflow. I would like to override Sitecore.Workflows.Simple.AutoSubmitAction with my bussiness logic but I am not getting the steps from where I can customize. Basically I want workflow from which any item change I want to change last modified date of its parent. I know we can achieve this by event onsave but I want using workflow.

Solution

  • There is no point in overriding AutoSubmitAction.

    Just create your custom action class and implement WorkflowPipelineArgs method:

    public class CustomAutoAction
{
    public void Process(WorkflowPipelineArgs args)
    {
        Item dataItem = args.DataItem;
        if (dataItem != null && dataItem.Parent != null) {
            dataItem.Parent ...
        }

    Then add it under /sitecore/system/Workflows/Sample Workflow/Draft/__OnSave:
