This section describes how to customize start validators for built-in workflows. Workflow start validators may need to be changed due to project requirements like, e.g., excluding specific documents from translation.

Note

It is generally not recommended to omit or change existing validators of built-in workflows. Refer to Table 3.23, “Studio Properties” in Deployment Manual in Deployment Manual for default start validators.

Workflow start validators for built-in workflows are defined by one property for each workflow (property name pattern studio.workflow.validation.start-validators.*). Refer to Table 3.23, “Studio Properties” in Deployment Manual in Deployment Manual for default values of these properties. See Java API documentation on TranslationWorkflowValidationConfiguration and PublicationWorkflowValidationConfiguration for details on available validator beans.

Custom validator beans implementing interface WorkflowValidator may be added to any of the workflows by providing a re-definition of the corresponding property (using the default value) in your project code and appending custom validator bean names to the comma-separated list.
