The new implementation provides better readability and maintainability of the code by reducing unnecessary lines and improving structuring of objects and responses.
* Remove unused IBookmarkManager and update workflow functions
IBookmarkManager from ProtoActorWorkflowRuntime.cs file is removed due to its redundant status. Additionally, the "FindAsync" method has been updated to use a cancellation token. Also, annotations were added to the "ExportWorkflowStateAsync" and "ImportWorkflowStateAsync" methods to flag calls to functions that require unreferenced code.
* Remove unused ReSharper directive
Unused ReSharper directive in the file IndexTriggers.cs was identified and therefore removed. This change makes the code cleaner and easier to read.
* Update activity invocation in workflow runtime
Updated the DefaultBackgroundActivityInvoker service in the Elsa.Workflows.Runtime module to annotate the ExecuteAsync method with "RequiresUnreferencedCode" attribute. This change is made considering the potential code trimming issue. Additionally, simplified the process of fetching workflow by directly using FindWorkflowAsync method instead of FindWorkflowDefinitionAsync and MaterializeWorkflowAsync methods.
* Refactor code to simplify workflow definition loading
The code for finding and materializing workflow definitions has been simplified. Instead of loading the definition and materializing it into a workflow in separate steps, a new method called FindWorkflowAsync has been introduced to perform both actions at once. This reduces redundancy and makes the code more readable.
* Refactor WorkflowHostFactory to streamline workflow creation
This commit simplifies the workflow creation process in WorkflowHostFactory. It removes redundant code and extraneous methods, specifically the overloaded CreateAsync method which used WorkflowDefinition. Now, it directly finds and uses the Workflow instance, thereby simplifying the code base and improving maintainability.
* Refactor workflow retrieval in WorkflowInstance.cs
Changed the way workflow instances are retrieved from the WorkflowDefinitionService. Instead of obtaining the workflow definition and then materializing the workflow from it, the workflow is directly retrieved using the FindWorkflowAsync function. This simplifies the code and avoids unnecessary null-checks.
* Remove unnecessary whitespace in WorkflowInstance.cs
An extraneous whitespace character was identified and removed in the WorkflowInstance.cs file. This change contributes towards maintaining clean and readable code in the Elsa.ProtoActor module.
* Remove unnecessary comment in ProtoActorWorkflowRuntime
The unnecessary comment ("Load the workflow definition.") in the method TryStartWorkflowAsync of the ProtoActorWorkflowRuntime.cs file was removed. This is part of an ongoing effort to keep the codebase clean and readable.

Added explicit notification handlers for DeleteWorkflowInstances and RefreshActivityRegistry in WorkflowManagementFeature.cs. Also, renamed RefreshActivityRegistryHandler.cs to RefreshActivityRegistry.cs for better clarity.
* Add multiple log record support to workflow execution log stores
The major change of this commit is the addition of methods to add multiple log records in the WorkflowExecutionLogStore, across different storage modules such as EntityFramework, MongoDB, Dapper, Elasticsearch and Memory. This ensures consistency and uniform behavior across different storage types. Furthermore, some reformatting and tidying up of the code were undertaken to maintain readability and clarity.
* Remove redundant workflow definition check
The workflow definition existence check and related service retrieval were removed from HttpWorkflowsMiddleware.cs. It was determined that this check was unnecessary as the workflow definition's existence is guaranteed at this point in the process, reducing redundancy in the code.
* Improve cancellation token usage in workflow execution
This commit refines the usage of cancellation tokens during the execution of workflows in Elsa.Server and HttpWorkflowsMiddleware. Previously, a cancellation token pair was created before ExecuteWithinTimeoutAsync was called, which limited duration control solely to that method. Now, cancellation tokens are included within ExecuteWithinTimeoutAsync method. This allows the method to observe any cancellation initiated by outer scopes, enhancing control over the timeout of operations.
* Add PersistStateAsync method to WorkflowHost
A new PersistStateAsync method has been added to the WorkflowHost, which enables the host to directly persist its own state. The method has been integrated into the DefaultWorkflowRuntime and HttpWorkflowsMiddleware. This update eliminates the need to continuously get instances of IWorkflowInstanceManager to save state, which improves efficiency and code readability.
* Refactor DefaultAlterationRunner service
This update simplifies the DefaultAlterationRunner service, reducing the number of code lines and removing unnecessary references. The workflow materialization step has been merged with the find workflow step, and unused namespaces have been dropped.

Also cleaned up redundant usages and unnecessary namespaces across various modules. This simplification better aligns with standard .NET conventions and reduces the code complexity.
* Implement ActivityHandle for better activity identification
The ActivityHandle class has been introduced to consolidate various activity identification parameters such as ActivityId, ActivityNodeId, ActivityInstanceId, and ActivityHash. This makes it easier to track and manage activities by reducing the number of parameters needed for identification. Adoption of ActivityHandle has been implemented across the codebase.
* Remove AzureContainerApps related code
This commit includes the removal of all the AzureContainerApps associated code from the ProtoActor Cluster. The deletion includes multiple files which had housed the AzureContainerApps cluster provider and all its supporting services, util functions, options, contracts, and models. This move might be towards refactoring the structure or removal of unwanted dependencies.
* Add distributed execution runtime and client
Removed some unused classes and created a distributed execution runtime using distributed locking and persistence. Introduced an interface for workflow clients and implemented two versions, a local one and one using `Proto.Actor`. Made some changes in other modules to add the necessary interfaces and methods. Also, added `DistributedLockingRuntime` module to implement distributed execution.
* Remove WorkflowClient.cs from Elsa.Workflows.Runtime
The WorkflowClient.cs file was removed from the Elsa.Workflows.Runtime project. It held placeholder methods that had not yet been implemented, making it unnecessary in the current codebase.

Reorganized the namespaces in 'Elsa.Workflows.ComponentTests' project. Added 'UseCache' in WorkflowServer configurations.
* Removed RunWorkflowParams class
This update deletes the RunWorkflowParams class within the Runtime Requests of the Elsa.Workflows module. The class was no longer needed, hence the elimination and cleanup in the codebase.
* Update RunWorkflowParamsMapper to handle null or empty fields
This commit modifies the RunWorkflowParamsMapper in the Elsa.ProtoActor module. It primarily treats the BookmarkId and TriggerActivityId fields to return null if they are empty, boosting the application's robustness against potential null or empty field issues.
* Refactor workflow handling and improve null checks
In this update, the handling of workflows was refactored to improve efficiency. The 'RunAsync' method now correctly uses 'WorkflowGraph' as a parameter, instead of 'Workflow'. Additionally, null checks for 'bookmarkId' and 'activityHandle.ActivityInstanceId' have been improved to avoid null and empty strings. Finally, when '_workflowInstanceId' is null in the 'WorkflowGrain' class, it is now properly initialized by parsing the cluster identity.
* Enable ProtoActor in Elsa.Server.Web
This commit turns on the use of ProtoActor within the Elsa.Server.Web bundle. This switch may affect the system's behavior and performance.
* Added new workflow scheduling and management features
Implemented new features for creating, running, and scheduling workflow instances.

Implemented basic functionalities in DistributedWorkflowClient and DistributedWorkflowRuntime. Updated Web Application 'Program.cs' to support different WorkflowRuntimes as per the configuration. Renamed WorkflowRuntimeFeature.cs to DistributedRuntimeFeature.cs and refactored the code accordingly. Removed unnecessary method 'UseDefaultWorkflowRuntime' from ModuleExtensions.cs.
* Refactor ReceivedServiceBusMessageModel from record to class
Converted ReceivedServiceBusMessageModel from a record to a class and updated relevant initialization code. Change was implemented because of the polymorphic serialization incabability of dealing with $type properties with records.
* Refactor WorkflowInstanceImpl for improved workflow management
This change refactors the WorkflowInstanceImpl class to improve workflow management. It implements queuing of RunWorkflowOptions while a workflow is running and ensures state before any workflow operations. Furthermore, workflow host creation is replaced with directly creating and managing workflow instances.
* Add DefaultFormattersFeature and update dependencies
A new feature, DefaultFormattersFeature, has been added to the Elsa.Common module. The WorkflowsFeature in the Elsa.Workflows.Core module has been updated to depend on this new feature. This will ensure that default JSON formatters are available across the application.
* Refactor JsonFormatter with JsonSerializerOptions property
Improved the JsonFormatter class by introducing a private JsonSerializerOptions property. The new implementation uses this property in the FromStringAsync method instead of initializing a new JsonSerializerOptions each time, improving efficiency. The JsonStringEnumConverter has also been moved to the class constructor.
* Refactor WorkflowInstanceImpl for improved code clarity
The refactor includes replacing direct field access with properties in multiple places for WorkflowGraph and WorkflowState. It also makes _queuedRunWorkflowOptions field readonly and removes unnecessary newline characters. These changes aim to improve readability, maintainability and encapsulation.

This update refactors multiple classes dealing with JSON serialization. The usage of serializer options now includes a caching mechanism to avoid unnecessary recomputation. 'CreateOptions' method is replaced by a 'GetOptions' method that considers cached options. Classes are adjusted to clone options when necessary, ensuring a fresh and accurate context each time.
* Refactor serializer options in workflow serialization
This commit refactors how options are handled for JSON serializers in Elsa's workflow modules. JSON serializer options are now handled more efficiently, by directly using the provided options in `JsonIgnoreCompositeRootConverter` and setting up internal serializer options in `ObjectConverter`. Unnecessary methods related to the cloning of serializer options have been removed.
* Add PublicAPI attribute to ActivityExecutionContext
The 'PublicAPI' attribute has been added to the ActivityExecutionContext class. This signals that this class is part of our public API and should not be modified in a way that violates backward compatibility. Furthermore, the 'RequiresUnreferencedCode' attributes were removed from the 'CompleteActivityAsync' and 'CompleteActivityWithOutcomesAsync' methods, as these methods no longer need them.
* Add merge function to DictionaryExtensions
A new merge function has been added to the DictionaryExtensions. This function combines the contents of two dictionaries, prioritizing the keys and values from the second dictionary whenever there is a collision.
* Add default item input key in BulkDispatchWorkflows
The code has been adjusted to include a default input item key in the BulkDispatchWorkflows module. This key will be used for the item input when dispatching workflows, unless the Items field contains a list of dictionaries. Additionally, modifications have been made to convert the item into an input dictionary if it isn't already one and merge this with the input dictionary.
* Update Merge method documentation in DictionaryExtensions
The commit adds a critical detail about dictionary operation in the method summary. It clearly states that during the merge operation, the value from the 'other' dictionary overwrites the value in the target dictionary when the same key exists in both.
* Move DynamicActivity.cs to Activities directory
The DynamicActivity.cs file has been moved from the Models directory to the Activities directory. This reorganization aims to ensure that the file's location correctly reflects its namespace.

* Refactor alteration runner logic and simplify CancelActivityHandler
The DefaultAlterationRunner.cs file was refactored to include a workflow middleware pipeline, replacing the previous method of updating workflow state. Comments were added to discuss potential solutions for reusing the same pipeline in the workflow runtime. The CancelActivityHandler was simplified by removing multiple functions and replacing them with a single CancelAsync method.
* Add RunAlterationsMiddleware to handle workflow alterations
The commit introduces a new middleware, RunAlterationsMiddleware, that is designed to process workflow alterations. The middleware is in charge of executing alteration handlers and taking care of any required commit actions. The original code for handling alterations in DefaultAlterationRunner has been significantly reduced as it now delegates most of its responsibility to this new middleware.
* Add comments to IAlterationPlanManager interface methods
In the IAlterationPlanManager interface, explanatory comments were added to each method. These include methods for getting a plan by ID, checking if all jobs in the plan have been completed, and completing an alteration plan. The changes made will greatly aid in understanding the purpose and functionality of each method.
* Refactor pipeline execution methods and replace middleware
The workflow execution pipeline has been refactored to allow for dynamic configuration. The middleware components are now retrievable properties and can be replaced individually. This change provides more extensibility with modifying the pipeline execution and replacing the DefaultActivitySchedulerMiddleware with desired middleware.
* Refactor pipeline alteration and addition methods
Simplified the pipeline alteration process in Elsa.Alterations. Instead of manually handling middleware delegates, added a new extension method, ReplaceTerminal, in WorkflowExecutionMiddlewareExtensions.cs to replace the terminal middleware component. This approach improves code readability and maintenance.
* Refactor RunAlterationsMiddleware class
Removed an unnecessary extension class and updated the RunAlterationsMiddleware class to streamline its structure. The handlers are now initialized directly in the constructor, eliminating the need for an additional field. Renamed local variable for better code clarity.
* Refactor variable name in RunAlterationsMiddleware
The variable name 'handlers1' has been renamed to 'supportedHandlers' in the RunAlterationsMiddleware.cs file. This change improves code readability and makes it clear that the list contains only the handlers that can handle the given alteration.
* Change RunAsync method to return void
The RunAsync function in the RunAlterationsMiddleware class no longer returns a boolean value. The returned 'false' has been replaced with a 'return' statement, and the 'return true' statement has been completely removed. This refactor simplifies the control flow when executing alterations.
* Refactor variable handling and improve flowchart completion
Refactored variable value conversion and update logic in ModifyVariableHandler classes. Removal of some service dependencies simplifies the implementation and reduces coupling. Also streamlined completion process in Flowchart classes, making it more efficient and improving readability.
* Add running status filter to workflow instance finder
A new method was introduced to filter only running workflow instances before applying alterations in the "WorkflowInstanceFinder" service. The change ensures that alterations affect only workflows that are currently running, increasing the effectiveness and accuracy of the system.
* Rename ActivityId to ActivityNodeId in related classes
Modified the name of the 'ActivityId' property to 'ActivityNodeId' across multiple classes including 'ActivityWorkItemState' and 'WorkflowStateExtractor'. This change reflects the usage of NodeId more accurately in the workflow process. The methods 'FindActivityById' across classes were updated accordingly. Also, an attribute '[DynamicallyAccessedMembers(DynamicallyAccessedMemberTypes.PublicParameterlessConstructor)]' was added to two methods in 'WorkflowRunner'.
* Refactor code in Flowchart class
Removed unnecessary variable 'flowchartContext' in the 'CompleteIfNoPendingWorkAsync' method of the Flowchart class. The 'context' variable has been used directly for the 'HasPendingWork' check and 'CompleteActivityAsync' call, simplifying the code without altering functionality.
* Update workflow methods with parameterless constructor constraints
This change introduces parameterless constructor constraints on workflow-related methods in Elsa.Workflows.Core. Specifically, both RunAsync and BuildWorkflowAsync methods had their generics constraint updated to require a parameterless constructor. This ensures only workflows with a parameterless constructor can be run or built. Additionally, unused usages of `RequiresUnreferencedCode` attribute were removed from Elsa.Features.
* Remove Elsa.Alteration Handlers and implement workflow alteration activities
The Elsa.Alterations.Handlers, Services, and Endpoints have been removed and replaced with Elsa.Alterations.Activities for various steps in executing an alteration plan. These activities include submitting an alteration plan, generating alteration jobs, and dispatching alteration jobs. New models for ActivityFilter, AlterationWorkflowInstanceFilter, and alteration activity summaries are also introduced for better management of alteration plans.
* Add 'PrintMessage' custom activity and update naming rules
A new 'PrintMessage' activity has been added to the custom activities of the ConsoleApp, which simply writes a 'Hello world!' message. On top of this, the naming rules in the code styling settings have been expanded, introducing separate rules for instance and static private fields.
* Remove V3_1 database migration files
The V3_1 database migration files were deleted across all database providers, including MySql, SQL Server, SQLite and PostgreSQL. This is indicative of a rollback or significant revision to the data migration strategy.
* Update product version and modify tables in Elsa DB context
Updated "Elsa" DbSet product version from "7.0.11" to "7.0.14". Additionally, added new properties as well as modified existing ones in tables like "Elsa.KeyValues.Entities.SerializedKeyValuePair" to improve data structure. Also properly ignored certain entities in the Alterations DbContext.
* Add V3_1 migration for Elsa
This commit introduces the V3_1 migration for the Elsa module. Changes involve the introduction of new tables and alteration of existing tables. Specifically, a new 'KeyValuePairs' table was added and several columns on various tables were renamed or altered.
* Remove multiple Elsa.EfCore V3_1 migration files
The commit removes several migration files related to the V3_1 migration in multiple Elsa.EntityFrameworkCore modules including SqlServer, PostgreSQL, and SQLite. These files encompass changes in table structures and alterations.
* Update default value for ArgumentDefinition Type
The default value for the `Type` property in the `ArgumentDefinition` class was updated to `typeof(object)`. The `Type` property of `inputDefinition` in the `WorkflowBuilder` class was also modified to be set as `typeof(T)`. These modifications enable more flexible type handling.
* Refactor SafeSerializer and serialization services
The SafeSerializer service and related serialization services have been comprehensively refactored. This includes the removal of internal notifications, the incorporation of [RequiresUnreferencedCode] attributes, and changes in method signatures. Methods have been simplified to return ValueTasks directly from the JsonSerializer, and the notification sender dependency was removed.
* Add JSON serialization for alterations
Implemented a JSON serializer and a custom converter for the IAlteration interface in the Elsa.Alterations.Core.Serialization namespace. Also, introduced a new IJsonSerializer interface and an implementation for standard JSON serialization in Elsa.Common. These serialization changes enhance modularity and extensibility of JSON operations, and improve handling of IAlteration objects.
* Add "IsSystem" field to Workflow Definitions and Instances
This update introduces a new boolean field "IsSystem" to the Workflow Definition and Workflow Instance models. This field is designed to identify system workflows which aren't meant to be modified by users. Management and Runtime module code, API endpoints, database migrations, and related classes have been updated to include this new field. The MongoDB indices and Dapper migrations have been updated as well, and serialization/deserialization processes for these types have been modified to handle this new attribute.
* Remove outdated database migrations
Deleted database migration files from the MySql, SqlServer, and PostgreSql projects.
* Add V3_1 migration for Elsa.EntityFrameworkCore.Sqlite
This commit introduces the V3_1 migration for the Elsa.EntityFrameworkCore.Sqlite module. It includes changes in Alterations, Runtime, Management, and Identity contexts. These changes involve table alterations, addition of new columns, and creation of new tables. Each context alteration encapsulates relevant changes for specific functionalities of the module.
* Add `IsSystem` property to workflow classes
The `IsSystem` property has been added to several sections of the codebase related to workflows, such as `WorkflowStateMapper.cs`, `ListWorkflowDefinitionsRequest.cs`, `WorkflowDefinitionStore.cs`, and `ListWorkflowInstancesRequest.cs`. This property flag allows us to include or filter system workflows in our queries and results.
* Add 'UsedImplicitly' attribute to Alteration Handlers and Types
The 'UsedImplicitly' attribute from JetBrains.Annotations has been added to all Alteration Handlers and Alteration Types in the Elsa.Alterations module. This change specifies that these classes are being used implicitly and helps tools like ReSharper prevent false unused code detection.
* Update migration script for efcore-3.1
The migration script efcore-3.1.sh has been updated. Module "Alterations" and provider "Sqlite" are added back into the lists while unused elements are removed for cleanup. The script now covers all necessary modules and providers, improving its overall effectiveness.
* Remove PrintMessage class from Elsa.Server.Web bundle
This commit deletes the PrintMessage.cs file that was previously part of the Elsa.Server.Web bundle.
* Refactor MassTransit service configuration
This commit reduces line code length by merging splitted long lines into one, improves maintainability of code. It also updates the Service configuration and removes unused namespaces across files, which help to simplify the codebase. Changes have also been made to switch the MassTransit broker from RabbitMq to memory and adjust the endpoint name formatter configuration.
* Remove extra whitespace in Program.cs
Removed a trailing whitespace on the line declaring the useSqlServer constant in the Program.cs file. No functionality changes were made, simply a minor formatting correction to maintain clean and consistent code.
* Remove AlterationJsonConverter and update other files
The AlterationJsonConverter class has been removed, simplifying the serialization process. The AlterationSerializer.cs file was updated with additional attribute tags, giving more information about serialization expectations. Lastly, the AlterationSerializationOptionConfigurator.cs was simplified by removing unnecessary overrides and the Elsa.Alterations.Core.csproj file was tidied up by removing unused services folder reference.
* Refactor code for improved readability and maintainability
The diff shows changes across multiple files in multiple modules. Primarily, these changes revolve around formatting edits such as removing unnecessary spaces or line breaks and adjusting alignments. A significant change was also made to the MySQL server version in the `DbContextOptionsBuilder.cs` file. These adjustments help improve the readability and maintainability of the code, making it easier to understand and modify in future iterations.
* Remove unnecessary notification files and refactor code
Several files pertaining to workflow serialization notifications were deemed unnecessary and removed. The Endpoint class in the `Elsa.Workflows.Api` module has been refactored for efficient usage of the `IWorkflowDefinitionStore` store, and similarly the `HttpFeature.cs` and `DesignTimeDbContextFactoryBase.cs` files have been slightly refactored for better readability and optimization.
* Refactor HttpFeature class on variable types order
The variable types order within the HttpFeature class in the Elsa Http module has been reorganized for cleaner code. No functional changes have been made - only the order of the types has been rearranged. This refactoring contributes to better readability and code maintenance.
* Add 'issue/*' branch to GitHub workflow triggers
This update includes 'issue/*' branches in the trigger configuration of GitHub workflows. Now, these branches will trigger specified GitHub actions, facilitating more effective issue tracking and resolution.

Modified `ActivityOutputRegister.cs` to utilize `LastOrDefault` instead of `FirstOrDefault` for retrieving the latest output by activityId or activityInstanceId. Now, in `ActivityExtensions.cs`, it differentiates between the output retrieval method based on whether the current activity context is identical to the requested one.
The GetOutput method was extracted from the execution contexts to ensure more precise and isolated functionality. It was simplified and redefined in three contexts which are: the ActivityExecutionContext, the WorkflowExecutionContext, and the ExpressionExecutionContext. This will enhance maintainability and readability of the code.
* Remove unused using directives in test classes
The using directives for System, System.Collections.Generic, System.IO, and others were not necessary in many of the test classes. These unused directives have been removed to enhance code readability and maintainability.
* Update source port retrieval in ConnectionJsonConverter
The source port retrieval code in ConnectionJsonConverter.cs has been updated. It now uses TryGetProperty instead of GetProperty, enabling it to handle cases where the "port" property may not exist. This enhances error handling and resilience in the activities module.
* Refactor InputJsonConverter for proper variable expressions handling
The InputJsonConverter in the Elsa.Workflows.Serialization has been expanded for efficient handling of variable expressions during the JSON conversion process. The refactor ensures appropriate extraction and assignment of values to variables. This adds robustness to the serialization process, maintaining variable types after serialization.
* Add tests for variable expressions serialization
A new `Tests.cs` file has been added under the `Elsa.IntegrationTests/Serialization/VariableExpressions` directory. This file contains tests for ensuring the serialization of variable expressions works correctly. A corresponding `SampleWorkflow` file has also been established, providing the workflows to be used in the tests.
* Refactor workflow builder extension class
The WorkflowDefinitionBuilderExtensions class has been deleted and replaced with WorkflowBuilderExtensions in Elsa.Workflows.Core. This new class retains similar functionality but includes more detailed comments and dynamic member access capabilities in its method definition.
Updated the WorkflowBuilder and its interface, IWorkflowBuilder, to include a series of fluent methods for handling inputs. These methods allow easier set up and addition of input definitions to workflows. An extension method to get input names was also added to the ExpressionExecutionContextExtensions.
Logging throughout the application, specifically in ActivityExecutionContextExtensions.cs, SendEmail.cs, and more, has been refactored to exclude activity state from log entries. There have also been updates to other files, such as introducing JetBrains.Annotations and modifying certain methods. Additionally, the IHttpMessageHandlerProvider.cs file has been removed.
The code has been restructured to account for cases where there is no activity execution context available. Instead of breaking the loop in such cases, the variables are derived from the memory blocks. Also, there is minor code formatting in output handling and array conversion for async enumerables.
A StringObjectDictionaryConverter has been added, which converts all IList fields of an object to array fields. This enhances the interaction of JS expressions with list types, allowing common Array methods to be applied directly. Furthermore, defaults have been added to the ExpressionEvaluatorOptions parameters to improve usability. Lastly, adjustments were made to ensure variables are correctly set while evaluating expressions.
This update adds new keys to the default background activity invoker for task completion and bookmarks. It also modifies handling of dispatched workflow instances in BulkDispatchWorkflows activity. It further updates the BackgroundActivityInvokerMiddleware to capture and remove additional task details from the workflow execution context. Refactors are made to ObjectConverter and a set method for background completion is added to ActivityExecutionContextExtensions and BackgroundActivityExecutionContextExtensions.
* Removed duplicate entries
* Prevented workflows and activities from starting when the parent workflow is being cancelled
* Added cancellation to execution contexts
* Added store for workflow execution contexts
* Added cancellation to workflowRuntime
* Removed calling BookmarkPersistedHandler when persisting bookmarks.
* Added endpoint for bulk cancelling tasks
* Added tests for cancelling workflows
* Prevented cancelling the cancellation process since it could have unwanted effects

A new BatchProcessing sample project has been added demonstrating how to process items in batches. ForEach and ParallelForEach activities were updated to allow using an IAsyncEnumerable as source. BulkDispatchWorkflows was also refactored to improve its efficiency and handling.
* Disable MassTransitRabbitMq in Elsa.Server.Web.
* Create variable if not exists in Workflow.Core
The update introduced checks if a variable exists before attempting to set its value in the ExpressionExecutionContextExtensions. If the variable doesn't exist, it now creates one automatically.
Fixes#4789
* Remove unnecessary comment
The comment indicating to create a variable if it doesn't exist was deemed superfluous and removed from the ExpressionExecutionContextExtensions.cs file. This improves code cleanliness as the functionality is self-explanatory through the existing code structure.
The code was adjusted to correctly handle cases when the method `GetBackgroundOutcomes` returns null. This would cause the activity to complete prematurely.
Fixes#4763
* Update packages.yml for version 3.0.1
The packages.yml workflow file has been updated to target the v3.0.1 branch instead of main. The version also has been updated from 3.0.0 to 3.0.1 in the version prediction logic. Hotfix tags usage has been removed.
* Update git branch for commit verification in workflow
The Github workflow's step for verifying commits' existence has been updated. Instead of searching in the 'origin/main' branch, the workflow now checks in the 'origin/v3.0.1' branch. This modification ensures compatibility and consistency with the version being used.
* Update Elsa.Studio package versions
The Elsa.Studio and Elsa.Studio.Login.BlazorWasm packages in the Elsa.ServerAndStudio.Web and Elsa.Studio.Web projects have been updated from version 3.0.0-preview.177 to the stable version 3.0.0. This is to ensure we're using the stable and reliable versions of these packages in our projects.

Updated several middleware classes to align with these modifications.
* Add background execution handling to activity context
This commit adds the ability to manage the background execution state directly within the activity execution context. This includes adding methods to set and verify the background execution state, and modifying the existing code to use these new methods. A method for handling activity scheduling during background execution has also been started, but its implementation is not finished yet. The HTTP Request activities were updated accordingly to reflect these changes.
* Add scheduling function for background activities
This commit achieves two main goals. Firstly, it introduces two new classes called ScheduledActivity and ScheduledActivityOptions to store scheduled activities' information. Secondly, it modifies how activities are executed in the background by capturing the scheduling information as a serializable format and storing it in the workflow execution context properties dictionary. This change allows the workflow execution context to resume the activity execution context.
* Refactor HTTP request handling by removing SendHttpRequestTask
SendHttpRequestTask was deleted and its functionality was merged into SendHttpRequestBase. This consolidation led to the addition of StatusCode and ResponseHeaders output fields in SendHttpRequestBase. Another change includes the update in FlowSendHttpRequest to indicate that it's no longer deprecated. Also, HttpHeaders class was extended to accommodate HttpResponseHeaders objects. The consolidation was done to streamline the HTTP request handling process.
* Update GitHub Actions workflow for new release

* Add IExecuteWorkflowApi interface and refine retry policy configuration
A new interface, IExecuteWorkflowApi, was created to handle execution and dispatch of workflow definitions. This breaks down functionalities previously present in IWorkflowDefinitionsApi. Also, the retry policy configuration for HTTP requests has been refactored. Instead of hardcoding retry settings, now a delegate method can be optionally passed to customize the behavior. This makes it more flexible and shifts the responsibility of configuring retry policies to the client.
* Add option for synchronous broadcast in WorkflowInbox
This update introduces a new option to control synchronicity when broadcasting messages in the WorkflowInbox. The 'BroadcastWorkflowInboxMessageOptions' class allows the developer to specify whether the broadcasting will occur synchronously or asynchronously. The update also includes a new Endpoint and Workflow for demonstration and testing of this functionality.
* Update FastEndpoints packages to version 5.21.2
The current commit updates the version of all FastEndpoints packages from 5.20.1.7-beta to 5.21.2 in the 'Elsa.Api.Common' project. This ensures we are using the most recent stable release of these packages.

The README updates include specific instructions for running the Elsa server on port 5001 and the Elsa studio application on port 6001. These enhanced guidelines provide comprehensive steps for configuring the applications regarding authentication, module usage, and use of API endpoints.
* Add IsWorkflowDefinitionActivity method to ActivityExtensions
A new method, GetIsWorkflowDefinitionActivity, has been added to the ActivityExtensions class. This method checks a given JsonObject representing an activity to determine if it's a workflow definition activity. It returns true if the activity indeed is; otherwise, it returns false.
* Refactor MassTransit & AzureServiceBus configuration and delete unnecessary options
AzureServiceBusOption.cs and RabbitMqOptions.cs files were removed as they're no longer needed. The system now defers the configuration of MassTransit and AzureServiceBus to the application layer (Program.cs). The configuration for PrefetchCount is also allowed at the transport-level. A new abstraction, ConsumerTypeDefinition, collects all the consumer types with their respective definitions if provided. Adjustments have been made in related extension methods and classes to reflect these changes.
* Enhance configuration options for MassTransit
This commit enhances the configuration options for the MassTransit integration, providing additional settings for both Azure Service Bus and RabbitMq. It also refines the MassTransit workflow dispatcher configuration by allowing for custom dispatcher options. A default RabbitMq connection string has been added to the appsettings.json.

* Add tests for implicit joins and fix duplicate activity scheduling
This commit includes new integration tests for implicit join scenarios. The tests ensure that join and parallel join activities execute correctly and complete as expected. Additionally, a change has been made to the workflow execution context to prevent duplicate activity scheduling. Now, aside from checking if the activity is already scheduled, it also checks if the activity is scheduled for the specified owner.
Fixes#4703
* Add ExpressionEvaluatorOptions to JavaScriptEvaluator
The JavaScriptEvaluator now accepts an options parameter of type ExpressionEvaluatorOptions. This allows adding custom arguments to the evaluation context. An 'Empty' static instance of ExpressionEvaluatorOptions is added for convenience. Additionally, the usage of MassTransitAzureServiceBus in Program.cs is turned off by setting the flag to 'false'.
* Update README to add access information when user tried to run elsa with docker (#4708)
* [no ci] add link to Elsa 2 in README
* Remove Console and ASP.NET examples, simplify README.md
Simplified README.md by removing in-depth Console and ASP.NET Core examples, as well as mentions about building from source, serving overall clarity and readability. Added descriptions for coded and visual workflow design possibilities.
* Implement batch processing in BulkDispatchWorkflows
The changes introduce a batch processing mechanism in the BulkDispatchWorkflows activity. Previously, each workflow was dispatched individually. Now, the process groups the workflows in batches, processes each batch concurrently, and handles errors. This change improves performance, particularly for large data sources.
* Refactor workflow methods for async execution
Modified methods in the WorkflowInstance.cs to implement re-entrant approach for asynchronous execution. This is achieved by replacing 'await' with task-based calls passed through the Context.ReenterAfter method, providing more efficient non-blocking operations. Minor changes were also made in ClusterExtensions.cs and ProtoActorWorkflowRuntime.cs, including code clean up and slight modifications to maintain consistency.
* Refactor background activities scheduling
Background activities scheduling was moved to its own middleware where the actual scheduling happens instead of in the invoking middleware. Removed ScheduleBackgroundActivities.cs handler and added ScheduleBackgroundActivitiesMiddleware.cs instead. As a part of this change, restructured BackgroundActivityInvokerMiddleware to BackgroundActivityCollectorMiddleware, and updated all relevant references.
Minor modifications to a few other files include changes in their package dependencies and activity kind settings.
* Change ActivityKind from Job to Task in BulkDispatchWorkflows
The ActivityKind property in BulkDispatchWorkflows class has been changed from Job to Task. This updates the type of activity associated with the BulkDispatchWorkflows process within the Elsa workflow runtime module.
* Update BulkDispatchWorkflows activity
The BulkDispatchWorkflows.cs activity in Elsa.Workflows.Runtime module has been updated with some key changes: Added detailed description to the input element, introduced the dispatchedInstancesCount to accurately track the number of instances dispatched, and removed some unnecessary white spaces for improved readability.
* Add methods to handle activity run asynchronously flag
New methods have been added to handle the custom property 'runAsynchronously' on a JsonObject activity. These methods will help in getting and setting a value that indicates whether a specified activity can trigger a workflow asynchronously. This additional level of control can enhance workflow execution based on specific requirements.
* Add 'Persister' to UserDictionary in DotSettings
The new dictionary entry for 'Persister' has been added to Elsa.sln.DotSettings. This expands the vocabulary of the solution's user dictionary and ensures that 'Persister' is recognized as a valid term within the project context.
* Add Bookmark Persister and Bookmark Updater
The code introduces BookmarkPersister for processing bookmarks as part of the workflow runtime. This refactoring improves readability and maintainability by separating the bookmark persisting logic from the PersistBookmarkMiddleware class. A new class, BookmarkUpdater, is also added to handle updating of bookmarks. Changes also include adjustments to several other classes for improved functionality and code consistency.
* Add bookmarks processing to DefaultBackgroundActivityInvoker
The code addition includes two dependencies, IBookmarksPersister and IWorkflowStateExtractor, in the DefaultBackgroundActivityInvoker service. With these changes, during the workflow execution phase, bookmarks are captured and processed for any state changes. These modifications provide more control and efficiency over handling workflow states during the system's background operations.
* Update workflow handling and simplify codebase
Refactored the workflow handling logic and simplified numerous components in the codebase. Major changes include the enhancement of the Workflow Runtime handler, altering the broadcast and deliver functions in the Default Workflow Inbox, and the removal of unnecessary details in the Workflow Runtime feature. Also, unnecessary services and requests were removed for better code efficiency and readability.
* Add conversion support for long type in ObjectConverter
The ObjectConverter file has been updated to support conversion of 'long' type. This is done by adding an additional conditional statement for checking the underlying source type for 'long', then returning the converted value.
* Add 'Noop' method to WorkflowExecutionContext
A Noop method has been added to the WorkflowExecutionContext, and is now assigned to the ExecuteDelegate field when no resumption point is specified. The change, will prevent the invocation of the regular "ExecuteAsync" method, closing the activity without additional operations.
* Add AutoComplete option to workflow bookmarks
The AutoComplete option has been added to the workflow bookmarks, which determines whether the activity should automatically be completed if no callback is specified. This change improves the flexibility of bookmark creation and impacts various workflow elements and procedures. The corresponding adjustments have been made at functions where bookmarks are used or created.
* Refactor object initialization in ActivityExecutionContext
Refactoring was performed in the ActivityExecutionContext class to use object initializers for readability and clarity. This modification mainly targets the CreateBookmark and ScheduleActivityAsync methods, making their code more explicit and thus easier to understand.
* Refactor code for readability and improved logging
Code in several activity files and Worker.cs that involve creating bookmarks and handling messages received was refactored to improve readability and clarity. The instantiated "CreateBookmarkArgs" parameter was split into its individual arguments for improved readability. Logging in the Worker.cs file was also fine-tuned, with explicit count of workflows triggered by service bus messages being included in the debug log.
* Refactor code structure for ServiceBus Integration tests
Refactored the ServiceBus Integration tests for improved readability and maintenance. The changes included reducing the number of lines by removing unnecessary curly braces, removing unnecessary use of 'this' qualifier, replacing null checks with null-conditional operators, and organizing various code blocks for better understanding.
* Remove specific activity instance bookmarks
The change clears specific activity instance bookmarks in the context from the WorkflowExecutionContext. This is an extra step in the process of clearing bookmarks, which assists in managing and cleaning up workflow state effectively.
* Update Elsa.Studio.Login.BlazorWasm version
The version number of Elsa.Studio.Login.BlazorWasm has been updated in the Elsa.AllInOne.Web.csproj file. This change reflects the newest release, moving from version 3.0.0-preview.164 to 3.0.0-preview.167.
* Update artwork
* Implement pagination for activity descriptor fetching
Updated the WorkflowDefinitionActivityProvider code to fetch activity descriptors in a paginated manner. This change will be useful to avoid overloading system resources when interacting with large amounts of data. It retrieves a limited number of descriptors per request, looping until all are fetched.
Closes#4689
* Refactor task payload extraction and update workflow builder
Modified the way task payload is extracted in the OrderFoodTaskHandler.cs for more robustness. The input parameter of the workflow builder in the HungryWorkflow.cs file has also been refactored for efficiency. Making these tweaks streamlines management of values within the tasks.
* Update localhost port for workflow sample
The localhost port for the Elsa.Samples.AspNet.RunTaskIntegration has been updated from 7211 to 5001 in both the run-workflow.http and launchSettings.json files. This adjustment ensures that the workflow sample correctly points to the new localhost port, maintaining synchronization within the application.
* Refactor ExpressionExecutionContextExtensions module
Modified the GetInput methods to consider the case where the method is called within a composite activity, ensuring that only local variables have precedence over workflow input when executing within a composite activity.
* Feature HTTP Activity : Allow adding Authorization Header without validation (#4721)
* Add capability to add Authorization Header without validation
* Refactor authorization header handling in HTTP requests
This commit simplifies the syntax for input attributes in the SendHttpRequestBase.cs module.

* Update GitHub actions for packages publishing
This update changes the trigger for the package publishing action to only 'published' releases and prereleases. It also segregates the publishing mechanism into two separate actions: one for publishing preview packages to nuget.org, and another for publishing release packages. This change provides better clarity and control over the publishing process.
* Update FastEndpoints package and enable JWT Bearer Auth
The FastEndpoints package was updated to '5.20.1.7-beta' from '5.20.0-rc1'. Enabling JWT Bearer Authentication was also set from 'false' to 'true' in the SwaggerExtensions file. Removed conditions that were limiting the addition and usage of Swagger to .NET 6.0 or 7.0, which allows the Swagger to be used in any environment.
* Refactor input output assignment and JSON converter
The code has been updated to provide clear and meaningful block reference names using the Humanizer library in the IdentityGraphService. The redundancy in assigning input/output Id's in both IdentityGraphService and InputJsonConverter has also been removed, resulting in cleaner, less convoluted code.

* Add non-generic GetVariable method and Python accessors
A non-generic version of GetVariable method has been added to the ExecutionContextProxy.cs, allowing direct access to variables without specifying a type. To leverage this, Python accessors for getting and setting workflow variables have been added to GenerateWorkflowVariableAccessors.cs. This enhances the interaction between the Python scripts and the context variables.
* Add UI hints to input fields in workflow core modules
Changed a number of instances in both activities and UI Hints classes across multiple modules in the workflow core to utilize UIHints. The UI hint "DropDown" has been added to relevant input fields to improve the user interface. Special handling for Enum properties in the drop-down options provider has also been created.
* Update HTTP endpoint authorization handler
The default authorization handler for HTTP endpoints is now the AuthenticationBasedHttpEndpointAuthorizationHandler instead of the AllowAnonymousHttpEndpointAuthorizationHandler. The configuration was updated in HttpFeature.cs and the override in Program.cs was removed. This provides more security to HTTP endpoints by requiring authentication.
* Add JSON editor UI hint to HTTP activities
This commit introduces a JSON editor UI hint to HTTP activities within Elsa Workflow. It includes creating new classes for a JSON editor options provider and a handler for this UI hint. Also, these additions are registered within the Elsa Workflow. The hint is applied to the 'RequestHeaders' and 'ResponseHeaders' input fields found in HTTP-related activity classes.
* Add UI hints for HTTP endpoint and single line fields
Introduced HttpEndpointPathUIHandler to provide additional UI options for the Path input field in the HTTP Endpoint activity. This commits also adds SingleLineProps to offer more options for SingleLine input fields across different modules. The implementation improves UI component interactions.

The Elsa.Studio, Elsa.Studio.Login.BlazorWasm, and Elsa.Studio.Core.BlazorWasm packages have been updated to version 3.0.0-preview.174 across multiple projects. The updated packages should provide the latest functionalities and fixes from the Elsa framework.
* Add API key authentication for Elsa client
Introduced an `ApiKeyHttpMessageHandler` to use an API key as the authorization header for Elsa API client. This ensures secure interaction with the Elsa server. Also made updates to the `ElsaClientOptions` class to include the API key. An `AddElsaClient` method is added with the API key parameter in `DependencyInjectionExtensions` class for convenience.
* add sample CustomUIHandler
* Fix Httpendpoint Path
* Refactor parameter in AddElsaClient method
The parameter "configureOptions" in the AddElsaClient method has been renamed and refactored to allow direct HTTP client configuration. This change enables the actions for configuring the HTTP client to be passed directly, providing greater flexibility for customization.
* Add extension method to get workflow instance ID
This adds a new extension method in HttpResponseMessageExtensions class which retrieves the workflow instance ID from the response. It also includes a HeaderNames class to maintain the consistency of header names used by the Elsa API.
* Remove ElsaClient and related interfaces
Files ElsaClient.cs, IElsaClient.cs and IElsaClientFactory.cs have been deleted from the Elsa.Api.Client project. The commit also includes an update in the DependencyInjectionExtensions.cs file where IElsaClient service registration is removed, reflecting these changes.
* Add condition to return json as string
A condition has been added to check if the returnType is of type 'string'. If so, the json is returned as string directly without converting. This is particularly useful to avoid unnecessary conversion when the returnType is already a string.
* Disable PythonEngine Shutdown to prevent deadlock
* Improve variable resolution in workflow activity
Added a reference to Variable.Id in the SetVariable activity within the Elsa.Workflows.Core module to ensure the correct variable scope is utilized. This change enhances the precision of the variable resolution process by ensuring the correct variable is identified and updated.
* Refactor Elsa API client to use API key authentication
The Elsa API client configuration has been refactored to use API key for authentication instead of HTTP handlers. Besides, the configuration method name was changed to 'AddElsaApiKeyClient' and its parameters were simplified for ease of use. Object 'ElsaClientBuilderOptions' has also been extended with additional properties for further customization.
* Add workflow result variable to context scope
In the ExpressionExecutionContextExtensions module, an additional check and yield operation has been implemented. This allows the inclusion of the workflow result variable, if it exists, to the current context scope.
* Refactor code by renaming and moving classes
Renamed 'VehiculeActivity', 'VehiculeUIHandler' to 'VehicleActivity', 'VehicleUIHandler' and moved them to their separate files. A debouncer was added to InputsTab in the WorkflowDefinitionEditor to limit the rate of firing refresh requests. Optimized codes by reducing unnecessary lines and improved consistency in the 'Program.cs' file.
* Add sample CustomUIHandler (#4729)

* Update Elsa.Studio packages and modify authentication setup
The Elsa.Studio packages have been updated to version "3.0.0-preview.177" from "3.0.0-preview.174" in several project files. Additionally, in the "Program.cs" of ElsaStudioWebAssembly, the way the authentication handler is set up for the remote backend has been simplified and made more straightforward.
* Add System.Runtime to CSharpOptions
The System.Runtime assembly and namespace has been added to CSharpOptions. This extends the functionality capabilities within the Elsa.CSharp module by providing access to the Guid class and its related methods and properties.
* Improve handling of non-HTTP context in HttpEndpoint
Updated the HttpEndpoint class to handle non-HTTP contexts better. Instead of throwing an exception when it finds itself in a non-HTTP context, it now creates a bookmark that allows the invoker to save the state and resume execution from there. A callback has also been added to the bookmarks creation process to prepare for resumption actions.
* Add non-generic variable accessor method
Added a non-generic version of the GetVariable method to the ExecutionContextProxy and GenerateWorkflowVariableAccessors classes in Elsa.CSharp module. Also, extended the CSharpOptions class to include additional namespaces and assemblies related to System.Text.Json. These adjustments provide a more flexible way to access workflow variables and extend the usability of JSON serialization within workflows.
* Add UIHint for FlowJoin activity
The FlowJoin activity's join mode now includes a UIHint, which indicates its input is a dropdown. This improves user interface interaction by allowing the selection of join mode from a dropdown menu rather than manual input.
* Add Parser for Form data 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' (#4733)
* Update version naming in GitHub Actions
The convention for naming versions in GitHub Actions was modified. Previously, all tags were assigned just a sequential version, even if they were already marked as a release by a tag. Now, if they are tagged and marked as a published release, they use the tag as the version. The change should provide more accurate version information.
* Fix conditional formatting in GitHub workflow
A change has been made to correct the formatting in the conditional statement within the GitHub workflow file. This rectification ensures the proper assignment of the VERSION variable when a new release is published, through proper syntax adherence.
* Refactor variable names and update notification strategy
The variable names '_hosted' and '_backgroundEventService' in ServiceBusTests class have been refactored for clarity. They have been changed to '_backgroundCommandSenderHostedService' and '_backgroundEventPublisherHostedService' respectively to accurately depict the services they are hosting. Also, the notification strategy in the 'BackgroundEventPublisherHostedService' was changed from 'Background' to 'Sequential', fixing the process of sending notifications.

In the ExpressionExecutionContextExtensions module, an additional check and yield operation has been implemented. This allows the inclusion of the workflow result variable, if it exists, to the current context scope.
* add a more generic UIHandler to customize how inputAttributes can be handle by the ui
* Add IPropertyUIHandlerResolver and update PropertyUIHandlerResolver
Introduced a new interface, IPropertyUIHandlerResolver, to resolve UI options for a property. Refactored PropertyUIHandlerResolver to implement this interface and removed the unnecessary partial class structure. Also, cleaned up some unnecessary usings in various files for better code organization.
* Refactor variable name and description in InputDescriptor
The 'uISpecifications' variable in the InputDescriptor model is renamed to 'uiSpecifications' for better readability. Additionally, the associated comment was revised to explain that the dictionary is used by the UI.
* "Refactor codebase for improved organization and cleaner architecture"
The codebase has been significantly refactored, moving several classes to more appropriate namespaces for improved organization and cleaner architecture. This includes shifting UI hint handlers, activities, and memory-related components, amongst others. The changes should improve code readability and maintainability, but as this is a broad refactoring effort, thorough regression testing is advised.
* Add CheckList UIHint with associated handler and provider
This update introduces a new UIHint called CheckList to the Elsa.Workflows.Core. This includes the necessary handler and provider classes. The handler is registered in the WorkflowsFeature.cs, and the CheckList UIHint key has been added to the InputUIHints.cs. Various associated files have been created in both the Elsa.Api.Client and Elsa.Workflows.Core project to support this new UIHint.

Modified the GetInput methods to consider the case where the method is called within a composite activity, ensuring that only local variables have precedence over workflow input when executing within a composite activity.
The change clears specific activity instance bookmarks in the context from the WorkflowExecutionContext. This is an extra step in the process of clearing bookmarks, which assists in managing and cleaning up workflow state effectively.
The AutoComplete option has been added to the workflow bookmarks, which determines whether the activity should automatically be completed if no callback is specified. This change improves the flexibility of bookmark creation and impacts various workflow elements and procedures. The corresponding adjustments have been made at functions where bookmarks are used or created.
A Noop method has been added to the WorkflowExecutionContext, and is now assigned to the ExecuteDelegate field when no resumption point is specified. The change, will prevent the invocation of the regular "ExecuteAsync" method, closing the activity without additional operations.
This commit includes new integration tests for implicit join scenarios. The tests ensure that join and parallel join activities execute correctly and complete as expected. Additionally, a change has been made to the workflow execution context to prevent duplicate activity scheduling. Now, aside from checking if the activity is already scheduled, it also checks if the activity is scheduled for the specified owner.
