App overview

The following pages are available in the Workflow Designer app:

  • Home Home: Allows you to keep track of all workflows in the system, create new workflows, and duplicate, update, or delete existing workflows. You can also specify the resources required for a workflow and how they are linked to each other, as well as provide default configuration settings for resources.

  • About About: Provides information on the version of the MediaOps package.

Workflows

A workflow defines which resources and resource pools are needed for an operation, and how they are interconnected. This is useful if you want to reuse the same set of resources in multiple jobs. For example, if a certain set of resources is always required when organizing live broadcast events, you can group these into a "Live Broadcast" workflow and use it whenever you want to send out a crew for a live broadcast operation.

Workflow Designer allows you to also use resource pools in your workflows, enabling you to specify which types of resources you need in your workflows, without the need to specify the exact resources up front.

For more details on how you can create workflows in this app, see Creating workflows.
