How to customize Workflow Type in Java

The Workflow Type defaults to the short name of the Workflow interface. In the following example, the Workflow Type defaults to NotifyUserAccounts.

  @WorkflowInterface

  public interface NotifyUserAccounts {
    @WorkflowMethod
    void notify(String[] accountIds);
}

To overwrite this default naming and assign a custom Workflow Type, use the @WorkflowMethod annotation with the name parameter. In the following example, the Workflow Type is set to Abc.

@WorkflowInterface

  public interface NotifyUserAccounts {
  @WorkflowMethod(name = "Abc")
  void notify(String[] accountIds);
  }

When you set the Workflow Type this way, the value of the name parameter does not have to start with an uppercase letter.
