Update/trigger/etc activities via client #97

Describe the solution you'd like

Support updating activity options and/or triggering a backing-off activity from a client. This is a concept Temporal is actively considering and still designing, so details are not present yet. This is merely an issue for public issue visibility.

Thanks for the feature request!

Temporal is actively considering supporting updating activity options and triggering a backing-off activity from a client.

At the moment, a workaround is to achieve this functionality by using a Signal handler in your Workflow.

Thanks for the request! This is an interesting feature. We are currently working on designing and implementing a solution for updating activity options and triggering backing off activities from a client. You can achieve a similar effect by using a Signal handler. When a Signal is received, you could modify an internal timer (such as a Schedule-to-Close Timeout) in your workflow and then restart the activity with a new set of options. We will update the documentation when this feature is available.
