Overview

The Workflow Items data source is one of several data sources available for creating reports in App. To learn more about data sources in general, please see: Overview: Data sources for reports (App).

With the Workflow Items data source, you can create reports that show you which workflow modules have been added to a specific workflow created on your organization’s account. You might prefer to create these types of reports to be able to take a deep dive into understanding the set up, flow, structure, and overall configurations of a specific workflow to better understand it for training, troubleshooting, or learning purposes.

You can use this data source to retrieve information about a specific workflow like: 

• What is the name of the workflow module?

• What type of module is it?

• When was it created and who created it?

• When was it last updated and who updated it?

• What workflow is it on?

• What workflow version is it in?

In short, this data source is useful to use when you want to see and analyze a specific workflow through a report format instead of needing to log into Console and open up a workflow from there, which is especially helpful for users that don’t have the user permission for accessing Console.

This article provides common use cases for the data source and a list of its tables.

Use case

A workflow items report is useful when you want a data representation of the structure of a specific workflow. 

Instead of manually looking through all of the workflows on your account, you could use a workflow items report with a filter by the workflow’s version ID to give you a general view of how a workflow is set up.
