Event-triggered flow activation, item provenance, portable import/export

  • Feature

    Event-triggered flow activation

    A flow can now auto-spawn a new item when a specific event is raised in the system. Configure it in Designer → Settings → Activation: toggle event-driven start and pick the events that should trigger the flow. Classic use case: "When the Order Approval flow reaches 'Approved', automatically start the Customer Onboarding flow." The new item inherits the source item's entityRefId and carries a _source provenance block, so downstream tasks can reach back to the originating event and item.

  • Feature

    Item Origin card

    Every item now has a dedicated Origine (Origin) card on its detail page that shows where the item came from: creation date, kind (manual / api / event / spawn), the event name (if event-driven), and a clickable link to the source item for event/spawn cases. The same data is embedded in item.data._source for use in task templates, e.g. {{item.data._source.event.payload.totale}} or {{item.data._source.item.entityRefId}}.

  • Feature

    Portable export and import: events re-linked by name

    When you export a flow the references to events are now serialized by name instead of UUID, both for startEventDefIds and per-status eventSubs. On import into a different FlowSharp instance, event names are resolved in the target tenant: if an event with the same name exists, the link is restored; if it doesn't, a new event def is auto-created as Custom. No more re-linking events by hand after a flow migration.

  • Design

    Stato/Fase terminology

    The designer now uses the dual term Status/Phase (Stato/Fase in Italian) in user-facing labels — toolbar button, inspector, transition rules. The technical concept ("state of a state machine") stays, but is paired with the business-friendly word "phase of work" for everyday use. Side bonus: the duplicated "Aggiungi stato Stato" label is finally fixed.

  • Design

    Final states: cleaner inspector

    When a status is marked as Final in the designer, the inspector now hides the sections that don't apply to a terminal state: the type selector (Auto / Manual / AI), transition rules, the allowed-transitions list, and the "Auto without rules" warning on the node. A final state has no outgoing paths by definition — the panel now reflects that.

  • Design

    Wrap-up tasks: banner + cleaner data view

    When an item reaches a final state but still has open tasks (e.g. a Manual "send rejection email"), the detail page shows a calm amber banner: "N wrap-up tasks still open — you can complete them for traceability." Wrap-up tasks do not block completion: the item is already done, the tasks are recorded for the audit trail. At the same time, the _source provenance block is no longer rendered as a raw JSON field in the data preview — it lives in the Origine card and the JSON view.

  • Improvement

    Delete flow: always available

    The Delete (X) button on flow cards is now always shown, not just on drafts. The backend decides: if the flow has never had items, hard delete with full cleanup; if it has items, soft disable with an informative message and items stay accessible. No need to dig into the version panel to remove a published flow that's no longer used.

  • Improvement

    Fixes on Event tasks and the designer

    Multiple quality fixes ship in this release: Event-type tasks are now auto-completed at spawn time (fire-and-forget — they were incorrectly stuck on "Pending" forever, silently blocking auto-transitions on Auto/AI states); the dataSchema in the designer no longer disappears when switching tabs; the Form AI sample payload is now derived from the existing dataSchema (an instance with type-typed placeholders like { "customerEmail": "" }) instead of dumping the raw JSON Schema; field-name matching between source and destination flows pre-populates compatible fields on event-triggered activation.
