This article contains a summary of the changes that will be soon applied to the logic of workflows.

Terminology

What will change?

Workflow type Current logic Future logic
Business When a workflow is initiated, a path begins and only one path can exist within that workflow at a time. In the example below, if a workflow is launched by an incoming request and the path is stuck in the Delay node, the occurrence of another request will not relaunch the workflow. Example More paths can exist within a workflow at a time. In the example below, a workflow is launched by an incoming request and the path is stuck in the Delay node, the next occurrences of incoming requests begin other paths in the workflow. However, there is a limit of 50 requests per second. Example
Customer-oriented A customer can begin multiple paths within one workflow if the workflow limits allow it. The path that first reaches the End node terminates all initiated paths within that workflow. Single In the configuration of an End node, you can use the Allow finishing other paths option to select between the previous logic (remaining paths are terminated as one of them reaches the End node) or allow continuing initiated paths until the end of the workflow. Paths stuck for more than 60 days will be terminated automatically. Paralell

FAQ

  1. How will workflows that were activated before the change work?
    All workflows activated before the changes, will be working based on the previous logic.

  2. How to apply the new logic to active workflows?
    If you want them to function based on new logic, you must duplicate and activate them.

  3. Do I need to change existing draft workflows?
    If you want to use the new logic in them, you must edit them and enable it.
