Do you write the plugins yourself? Can you share the code?

Hi, It is a custom plugin (extends DefaultApplicationPlugin). The issue is not about the plugin contents but how to launch it in async mode
- Aristo
Ok, basically there are simple and advance approaches. The simple one is create a flow with only 1 tool, and then trigger the flow using Beanshell Plugin (or any other plugin as long as it can trigger to run a flow). The more comprehensive (and advance) approach is create a plugin to run another plugin, you can use PluginManager.getPlugin method to dynamically get plugin object and perhaps you can run the plugin using Java multithreading. I haven't checked the later approach, but seems workable (and surely later I will work on the Async Process Plugin since it is cool and reuseable)

If you have a custom plugin, you can execute the code in a background thread https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/concurrency/runthread.html

Hi, I created a plugins. It might not be fully tested but I hope it helps. It can run any Tool Plugins asynchronously so you don't need to modify anything. https://github.com/kinnara-digital-studio/jw-plugins-async-run-tool

My problem is exactly the same as Async run of tool plugins (without answer since 2013)
I need to run asynchronoueously a plugin without waiting the end of the plugin.
I made an asynchronous subflow between 2 activities.
When I complete the first activity, I was expecting to have immediatly the second activity and the subflow running in parallele.
Instead of this, I have to wait for the subflow to finish as if it was a synchronous subflow
