# typeID Attribute

Contains the globally unique identifier (GUID) for the Microsoft BizTalk Server 2004 Human Workflow Services (HWS) operation.

## Type

`xsd:string`

## Parent Elements

Element | Description
--- | ---
hwsOperation | Defines the HWS operation type, such as adding an action to a new activity flow, adding an action to an existing activity flow, or responding to a task.

## Definition

    <xsd:attribute name="typeID" type="xsd:string" use="required"></xsd:attribute>

## Remarks

The GUID is automatically generated upon submit of the hwsAdapter element, and it updates the processing instructions of the XML instance file.

Note This item is not supported when the Disable Service Pack features option on the Advanced tab of the Options dialog box in InfoPath is selected or when Microsoft Office 2003 Editions Service Pack 1 or later is not installed. Any form defined by a form definition file (.xsf) that includes this item cannot be opened in InfoPath when service pack features are disabled or unavailable.

## Example
