I'm sorry, there isn't enough information to answer this question. Can you clarify the context where you can't get values returned from the Workflow web service?

Webservices are designed to exchange data. A web service can receive data, perform actions and return data to be used in the application from where it is called. Laserfiche workflow web service 9.2 receive data to triger a workflow but workflow cannot return data to the application from where the wf web service is called.

Oh, I see, I thought you were reporting a bug or referring to calling the Workflow web service as part of the Forms service task. Workflow can post back to a web service when it completes. See Flavio's answer in this thread.

Dears,

 

From a third party  portal, we need to send a request to Laserfiche workflow web service to search for a document and return it to the portal to display the document-- please to elaborate how it can be done.

thanks,

Dory

That's not really a scenario for Workflow, you'd have to script the export and the upload of the document to the portal and come up with your own document viewer to display it.

Why not just use Web Access for search and displaying documents? You can build and pass in the search through the URL and embed the document viewer into your site.
