Running Workflows

Prev Next

The way a Workflow is run depends on its configured trigger:

  • Event-triggered Workflows: Workflows triggered by an Event run automatically when the selected triggering event occurs. For this to happen, the Workflow must be saved and activated by clicking Save and Activate in the Workflow configuration pane.

  • Manually-triggered Workflows: Workflows configured with a Manual Action trigger can only be started manually. After configuring the Workflow, click Save and Run to run it on demand.

  • Scheduled Workflows: Workflows configured with a Scheduled Action trigger run automatically according to the defined schedule.

Important considerations:

  • Workflows operate on a single asset at a time. If a triggering event identifies multiple assets (for example, ten assets), the Workflow runs separately for each asset (ten times in this example).
  • You can monitor the results of all Workflow runs, or those of a specific Workflow, on the Run History page.
