workflowmanager host is server in which you have installed the workflow manager. Once you install workflow manager "workflow management site" gets created in IIS. You can find the URI from that IIS site which can be used for -workflowhosturi parameter.

Where do I see the URI in the workflow management site in IIS ?

All i see is under browse website : https : 12290 & http : 12291...if i click 12291 I get an internal error

please mention the exact location to find the URL

Thanks

I don't have setup to test it but the workflowhosturi would be  in this format http://WorkflowmanagerHostFQDN:12291

Hi,

According to your post, my understanding is that you could not register the workflow service.

If the workflow manager install in the SharePoint server, you can register the workflow service by the following command.

Register-SPWorkflowService SPSite http://mysitecollection.local WorkflowHostUri http://localhost:12291 AllowOAuthHttp

Thanks & Regards,

Jason
