Overview

Workflows are used to configure automated actions that run when a Technology or List's contents change, triggered automatically after our weekly data updates.

Workflow Actions

Workflows currently support the following actions:

Disabling Actions

Actions within a workflow can be disabled. A disabled action will be skipped the next time the workflow is run. This is useful when you want to run the same action again in the future without having to reconfigure it from scratch.

To disable an action, click on the action's menu icon and select Disable. The action can be enabled again from the same menu.

Removing a Workflow

If you wish to delete the workflow, and all of its actions, visit the Technology or List's page and click the Edit Workflow button. This will open the workflow configuration dialog. Click the Delete Workflow button to remove it.
