It possible to continues execute a workflow from a specific activity?

Thank you for your great project!
My question is does Elsa support continuing processes workflows from a specific activity?

My project needs the ability to pause the execution of workflows and continue processing later, or re-execute the workflow from a specified activity after a failure.

Thank you for your help!

As of the information available up to the knowledge cutoff date, Elsa Workflows does not natively support pausing and resuming workflows from a specific activity. However, Elsa is designed to handle long-running workflows, which means that workflows can be suspended and resumed based on external events or triggers.

For workflows that encounter a failure, Elsa supports fault handling where you can design your workflow to handle exceptions and potentially retry activities or take alternative paths. However, the ability to explicitly pause a process and later resume or restart it from a specific activity is not directly mentioned in the available documentation or issues.

It's worth noting that there is a GitHub issue comment mentioning that the ability to pause a process is something the Elsa team plans to look into later in the year. This suggests that the feature may be considered for future releases, but as of the last update, it was not yet implemented.

For the most accurate and up-to-date information, I recommend checking the latest documentation and GitHub repository for any updates on this feature.
