Issue/Introduction
Symptoms:
A newly created Aria Orchestrator resource element is not accessible or readable in workflows when its attempted to be read using the scripting API just after the creation.
Requests to query for the resource return an undefined value.
Environment
VMware vRealize Orchestrator 8.x
Cause
The issue is caused by the current code implementation.
Resolution
A resolution is scheduled to be included in a future release of Aria Orchestrator. The article will be updated further once a specific version is confirmed.
Workaround:
One potential workaround is to add a user interaction prior to the read attempt. The user interaction triggers an update of the resource element list in the scripting API.
Additional Information
Impact/Risks: Recently created resource elements are not immediately visible or readable within the workflow execution. When another workflow is called and attempts to read the same resource it is now defined.
