Build a workflow safely

This procedure gives a safe starting sequence for the workflow editor; it does not prescribe a business process.

Example: review a submitted request

1. Define the event: a completed request form submission.
2. Open Workflow for the test form. Choose guided mode for a supported straightforward sequence; use advanced mode only when the process requires it.
3. Start with an Entry Point connected to a Notification or Human Task for an approved reviewer.
4. Add a Conditional Branch for approve/reject outcomes. Label every branch clearly.
5. Connect each branch to its next step: notification, request edit, form fill, wait, integration, or an explicit end path as appropriate.
6. Open each block and complete every required setting. For a recipient, select a valid approved person or group; for a wait, configure the timing; for HTTP, verify its method and authentication.
7. Save. If the editor marks a block with an error, open that block and repair missing configuration or connectors rather than bypassing the validation.
8. Run test submissions through approved, rejected, invalid, and timeout/failure paths. Verify each recipient and destination.

Expected result

Every workflow path has a clear next step or end, recipients are valid, and the tested actions match the documented business process. Never move a workflow to production solely because it saves successfully.
