Build your first Wrkflow

The Wrkflow Designer is the tool we use to break down business processes into individual steps. Each step is then delegated to a Wrk Action.

Watch this short walkthrough, then follow the step-by-step guide below to build a simple "Hello World" Wrkflow.

Step-by-step guide​

Start by creating a new Wrkflow by going to the Wrkflow Library > Design my own

This will bring you to an empty Wrkflow Designer where you design your Wrkflow.

Name your Wrkflow​

Click on the title and type in "My first Wrkflow"

Setup a launch parameter​

Click on the rocket icon. This action will open up the Launch Configuration on the right side panel.

Click on the "data type" drop down and choose "Text (short)"

Type in "My Name" in the text field to the right of the drop down, then press the "+" button.

This will add your first launch parameter. Next click "Confirm" to save it. This will close the Launch Configuration side panel.

Add a Wrk Action​

After saving the launch parameter, the side panel will display the Wrk Action library. Use the search field and type in "console". This will filter Wrk Actions that match your search criteria.

Drag and drop the "Send to Launch Console" into the Wrkflow Designer right below the rocket icon.

Using the small dot below the rocket icon, drag and drop it to the newly added Wrk Action.

This will create a line between the launch icon to the Wrk Action.

Configure a Wrk Action​

Click on the Wrk Action "Send to Launch Console". This will open up the Wrk Action configuration on the right side panel.

Fill in the following fields in the side panel:

Choose "Info" for the "Notification Type"

Type in the following text in the "Notification Content" field

In the same field, keep typing #{{ . This will invoke the Data Library which allows you to get information from the launch parameters or a previous Wrk Action.

Click on the "Launch configuration - My name", which was the launch parameter that we have saved previously. Your Wrk Action configuration should look like this:

Click Confirm to save your Wrk Action configuration. Once a Wrk Action has been properly configured, it will turn blue in the Wrkflow Designer denoting that it's ready.

Note: You must confirm your configuration. Values you enter in configuration fields are not saved to the Wrk Action until you confirm them.

Save your Wrkflow​

Our simple Wrkflow is now ready. Click on the "save" button on the top right

Let's launch it​

You can now launch your Wrkflow by clicking on 'Launch". In the field "My name", type in your name and accept the terms and conditions, then click on the Launch button.

This will open up the Launch Console and display the output of the Wrkflow.

Congratulations. You have built your first Wrkflow!
