According documentation on command-line utility, the  section "Workflow Execution Parameters" informs: "Because a workflow should already contain the tasks as well as the Agents/Agent Groups that the task should run on, there is no need to enter task or agent information.".

Consider the following scenario:

There's a workflow where all tasks are set to run on the "triggered agent" and is launched by a key event condition set to an agent group.

When key combination is pressed on a group agent, the tasks run at this agent.

However, if this workflow runs by command-line utility (AMExecute.exe), the tasks are send to default group agent, when the desirable behavior is send the tasks to the agent that calls AMExecute.exe

I would suggest an option for workflow execution through command-line utility, that is to accept a parameter to inform the agent name or id, and assume it as "triggered agent".

This "new" behavior could be useful to create a desktop shortcut that runs a workflow by an easier manner.

Thank you in advance for your attention, and thanks / blame Google Translator by translation.
