Hi Rajesh,

Activity type decide the work for which activity is designed where it can referenced, for example if type of activity is Utility then it will be used to  Update work item and can also be used in Utility shape. Type Activity is default choice for any activity.  You can refer below page for more information about this  -  https://community.pega.com/sites/default/files/help_v718/procomhelpmain.htm

Do we have any difference in actions or methods for Activity type "Utility" and "Activity"?

Cannot use Show-Page and Show-Property method when usage is Utility..Utility activity cannot display html..

Can we get complete list, which cannot be used in Utility activity

Thanks in Advance

One difference is that when you are configuring the utility shape on your flow, only activities marked as utility ones will show up in the drop-down.

However, regarding your questions about restrictions, the activity marked as a utility one doesn't impose any direct restrictions.  However, whatever restrictions there are regarding what you should and shouldn't do when in the utility shape context of a flow, those restrictions would apply to whatever activities you call from a utility shape.

Do we have any restriction on activity actions or methods for Activity type "Utility"?

or

Do we have any difference in actions or methods for Activity type "Utility" and "Activity"?

Query: If I set Activity type as "Utility" and use it as pre or Post action of Flow action, Do we have any impact.

One way to cross-check is this:

1) Make an activity A of type "activity" that calls an activity B of type "utility".

2) Run it once to make sure A and B are assembled, and then either use pyExtractCode or go directly to your server, so you get the java for both activities A and B.

3) Do it a second time but this time set activity B to be of type "activity".  Compare the javas for differences.

I believe the "utility" type mostly controls which activities appear in the design-time drop-down when you are setting up your utility flow shape, but doing that java comparison will show if any assembly details are different.
