User Story

As a developer, I want to collect custom analytics events when users perform specific workflow actions.

Acceptance Criteria

1. Users can add a Workflow subaction to any Workflow action to record an analytics event.
2. The subaction allows the user to specify the following information at a minimum:
   • Event type
     • This can be any value EXCEPT the pre-defined event types we record automatically (e.g. PAGE_REQUEST).
   • Object type (e.g. WhatAmI)
     • If the user leaves this blank, the type is set to CONTENT.
   • Object ID
     • If the user leaves this blank, the id is set to the content identifier.
3. Each time the workflow action is executed, an event is logged to the analytics data store.
4. The events submitted via workflows may be retrieved the same as all other analytics events (e.g. via API and viewtool).
5. No information about the event is displayed anywhere (e.g. no growl, no popups, no log messages).
   • If the user wants any messages or notificaions, they can add other subactions for those.
