How do I get workflow info on a DataQualityEventHandler rule?

I'm making a simple event handler rule that sends an email when a workflow is processed. I would like the email to include the datetime when it was processed, the user who did it, the workflow, workf...

    As SimonHesford says you can get that information from the args object. The structure of args varies according to the step that is being processed. For ProcessCube you access it like this:

    ' Dim wfUnitPK As WorkflowUnitPk = DirectCast(args.inputs(0), WorkflowUnitPk)
' Dim tskActivity As TaskActivityItem = DirectCast(args.inputs(1), TaskActivityItem)
' Dim calcInfo As DataUnitInfo = DirectCast(args.Inputs(2), DataUnitInfo)

    Thank you so much MarcusH, do you know if there is any documentation which specifies the structure of args for other steps?

      I haven't found much documentation on the args structure. Whenever I need to use them, I get the info using intellisense and debugs. I then add the info to the top of the BR like this:

      #Region "DataQuality args, steps and operations list"

#Region "Steps"
' DataQuality steps:
'	BREventOperationType.DataQuality.Certify
'	BREventOperationType.DataQuality.Confirm
'	BREventOperationType.DataQuality.ICTransStatus
'	BREventOperationType.DataQuality.PrepareICMatch
'	BREventOperationType.DataQuality.ProcessCube
#End Region
#Region "Operation: Certify"
' DataQuality Certify operations:
'	BREventOperationType.DataQuality.Certify.EndSetCertifyState

'	BREventOperationType.DataQuality.Certify.SaveCertifyState
'	BREventOperationType.DataQuality.Certify.SaveQuestionairreState
'	BREventOperationType.DataQuality.Certify.SaveQuestionResponse
'	BREventOperationType.DataQuality.Certify.StartSetCertifyState
'	BREventOperationType.DataQuality.Certify.StartSetQuestionairreState
#End Region
#Region "Operation: Confirm"

#End Region
#Region "Operation: ProcessCube"

'	BREventOperationType.DataQuality.ProcessCube.EndProcessCube
'	BREventOperationType.DataQuality.ProcessCube.NoCalculate
'	BREventOperationType.DataQuality.ProcessCube.StartProcessCube
'	BREventOperationType.DataQuality.ProcessCube.Translate
#End Region
#Region "args inputs"
#Region "Operation: Certify"
' Dim wfUnitClust As WorkflowUnitPk = DirectCast(args.Inputs(1), WorkflowUnitPk)
' Dim certifyInstance As CertifyInstanceInfo = DirectCast(args.Inputs(2), CertifyInstanceInfo)
' Dim certifyInstance As CertifySignOffInstanceInfo = DirectCast(args.Inputs(2), CertifySignOffInstanceInfo)
#End Region
#Region "Operation: ProcessCube"
' Dim wfUnitPK As WorkflowUnitPk = DirectCast(args.inputs(0), WorkflowUnitPk)
' Dim tskActivity As TaskActivityItem = DirectCast(args.inputs(1), TaskActivityItem)
' Dim calcInfo As DataUnitInfo = DirectCast(args.Inputs(2), DataUnitInfo)
#End Region
#Region "Operation: ICTransStatus"
' Dim TransactionStatus As ICMatchStatusInfo = DirectCast(args.inputs(0), ICMatchStatusInfo)
#End Region
#End Region

#End Region

      If I ever have to use the DataQualityEventHandler for the Confirm or PrepareICMatch steps, I will investigate and update the header.
