Flows and tables
From the Flows page, you can access all the folders, flows, and tables that are in your Workflows instance.
The Flows page uses a left-hand navigation bar to organize all available folders. After you select a folder in the navigation tree, the main page displays two tab-based panes: Flows and Tables.
Flows
To create a flow and add it to the current folder, click + New Flow. To search for a flow, enter your search text into the search field beside + New Flow.
You can view all the available flows inside a folder using either a list or tile view.
In the list view for the Flows tab, the following information is shown listed for each flow:
-
TYPE: The type of flow. A flow can be an application event, an API Endpoint, a scheduled event, or a helper flow. See Parent flows and other flow types and Helper flows.
-
ON/OFF: Ready-access ability to turn a flow on or off. A flow can start running only after it's turned on.
-
NAME: A user-provided label for the flow.
-
ACTIONS: A visual summary of the connectors that are used in the flow.
-
HISTORY: A visual summary of successful executions and failed executions for the flow, along with the last time that the flow was executed. A green check indicates the number of successful executions. A red 'X' indicates the number of failed executions.
-
AUTHOR: The username for the account that created the flow.
-
DATE CREATED or LAST EDITED: The date when the flow was created or last updated.
For each flow, you can edit the name and description of the flow. You can also test, duplicate, export, or delete the flow by clicking the matching icon (in tile view) or the action from the settings menu (in list view).
Sort flows
In the list view for flows, you can click the column headers to sort the flows in ascending or descending order. This is true for any of the column headers except HISTORY.
In the tile view, Okta Workflows presents flows as tiles including the flow's name and text description. Use the dropdown menu to sort the tiles using any of the available options, in either ascending or descending order.
Tables
To create a table and add it to the current folder, click + New Table. To search for a table, enter your search text into the search field beside + New Table.
Similar to the flows tab, you can view all the available tables inside a folder in either a list or tile view.
In the list view for the Tables tab, the following information is shown for each table:
-
NAME: A user-provided label for the table.
-
RECORDS: The number of lines in the table.
-
AUTHOR: The username for the account used when the table was created.
-
DATE CREATED or LAST EDITED: The date when the table was created or last updated.
For each table, you can edit the name or description, duplicate the table, or delete it.
Sort tables
In either list view or tile view, you can sort tables in ascending or descending order using any of the four criteria for tables.
