4 Key Digital Functionalities
Key Digital Functionalities describe the core (required) functions that this Building Block must be able to perform.
The Workflow Building Block enables the creation and automatic execution of business processes. Any application used to implement the Workflow Building Block specification must provide the following Key Digital Functionalities.
4.1 Workflow Process Building
Workflow Building Block candidates must allow business users to create arbitrary workflow processes. These processes must be able to perform calculations, make API requests (e.g. Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure, HTTPS) make HTTP requests, and execute scripts.
4.2 Workflow Process Execution
Workflow Building Block candidates (to differentiate themselves from mere business-process modelling tools) must be able to execute workflow processes:
via web API,
via manual interaction (click to run),
or via the passage of time.
4.3 Status Monitoring
Workflow Building Block candidates must allow business users to monitor the status of process instances.
4.4 Programmatic Process Discovery
Workflow Building Block candidates must provide an API which allows another application or developer to find a list of all available workflow processes for a given project or workspace.
