Overview

Space admins can create space workflows.

Space workflows are custom workflows created within a specific space that can be used only within this particular space.

Create a space workflow

Space workflow is a workflow belonging to a particular space. This workflow can be tailored for your team's needs and easily edited from the space settings by the space admin.

  1. Open the space 1 for which you would like to create a workflow.

  2. Click the gear 2 either from the sidebar or from the one which is located below the space’s name.

  5. In the drop-down that appears, click Create new workflow 5.

Important

  • You can create no more than 20 custom workflows per space and up to 10000 space workflows per account.

  • Space custom workflows can be used within the specifc space only. However, they are visible to all users in the account who have access to the space.

  • An account-wide workflow can't be turned into a space workflow. But a space workflow can be converted to an account-wide one.

  • In a locked space, you can add as assignees upon status change only users from this space.

  • Space workflows can be used only in Request forms and automation rules created from the same space.
