Hey! First of all, I wanted to thank you for the practical project—amazing work! Now to my question: I have a vacation approval workflow that needs to be confirmed by N users. For this, I pass a list of user IDs as an array as a workflow argument. Multiple users can send a signal (including their user ID), but I’d never know when all users in the initial array have actually confirmed. Where should this information be stored? Possibly somewhere outside the workflow? I was considering whether I could modify the arguments within the workflow itself. For example, if user XXX confirms, I’d check if they’re in the list and remove them. Once the list is empty, the workflow would be considered complete. What would be the ideal solution for this? @rmcdaniel :) Best - Alex |

So here is a simple example workflow that counts the number of approval signals received and then only completes after the minimum number of approvals has been received. |

@rmcdaniel, I think I am missing something. Working with class variables works only If I have the original workflow object. Another User could only send the Signal to a new Instance of the workflow, right? // User 1
$workflow = WorkflowStub::load(1); // approvalCount = 0 again
$workflow->approve();// User 2
$workflow = WorkflowStub::load(1); // approvalCount = 0 again
$workflow->approve();So I am not sure how to overcome this.. |

@Cluster2a Loading the workflow by the id and sending an approve() signal should work. Please double check everything. Let me know if it's still not working. |

@rmcdaniel, you’re absolutely right! I must have overlooked something while debugging, but I can now see that the counter reflects the latest value. Thanks so much for your help! By the way, we plan to incorporate this package into our solution and intend to sponsor this project regularly. Thank you for creating such a useful tool! |
