Admin Console is a hub that stores information about all the instructional elements created for all hosting applications connected to the given instance of Apty Assist. In the context of Workflows Management, Admin Console is used for:
- Accessing / viewing Workflows created for a specific hosting application,
- Checking the publishing status of Workflows and change them to make accessible or hidden from the end users,
- Viewing / editing Workflow Steps, and
- Accessing more Workflow options, such as Exporting them as PDF, retrieving their Permalinks, etc.
To view Workflows:
2. On the left side panel select the application you plan to work with. The application menu opens.
3. In the Application menu go to Manage > Workflows. The grid of the Workflows created for this application opens.
4. All the Workflows created for this application are displayed at the Manage Workflows page. The Search bar can be used to search for a specific Workflow by its name or tags.
To check the publishing status of a Workflow:
The Status of a Workflow can be identified by the color of the dots visible to the left of the Workflow name. A Workflow can be in one of three states: Draft, Ready or Published:
- Draft: is represented with yellow color. A Workflow is created but is currently in development, can be modified and is not available in the Assist Client neither for testing, nor for end users.
- Ready: is represented with yellow color. A Workflow is ready to be tested by the QA team in the Pre-production environment.
- Published: is represented with yellow color. A Workflow is available for the end users of the hosting application in the Apty Assist Client.
NOTE: Workflow can be edited, updated with new elements, or deleted only when it is in the Draft status. It cannot be edited or deleted when it is published. |
To change the status of a Workflow:
1. In the application menu go to Publish > Workflows
2. From a Workflows grid select a Workflow to be updated.
