This document describes the purpose and use of workflows in the InfoEx system.
Background
Workflows can be used to link together tasks that assist InfoEx users to view and record weather, snowpack and avalanche observations. Depending on the type of workflow selected, workflows can be used to:
- Organize and view data by a single user
- View, organize and share information within an operation
- View, organize and share information with the InfoEx community by submitting the results of a workflow to the InfoEx server
Workflow templates are created by users with operation administrator privileges or higher.
Details of: Workflow purpose and use
Workflows can be used in two basic ways:
| 1. | To retrieve specified information for viewing.
| ||||
| 2. | To submit information, in a guided process, that will be available for other users. Users have the option of sharing the information within their operation, or forwarding the information to the infoEx server and hence the entire infoEx community.
