Enabling a Workflow

Prerequisites

The workflow must have an activated version. For details, see Managing Workflow Versions.

Copying a Workflow Version

1. Log in to the management console.
2. Click in the upper left corner of the management console and select a region or project.
3. Click in the upper left corner of the page and choose Security & Compliance > SecMaster.
4. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Workspaces > Management. In the workspace list, click the name of the target workspace.
   Figure 1 Workspace management page
   

5. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Security Orchestration > Playbooks. On the displayed page, select the Workflows tab.
   Figure 2 Workflows tab
   

6. In the Operation column of the target workflow, click More and select Version Management.
   Figure 3 Version Management page
   

7. On the Version Management slide-out panel for the workflow, in the Version Information area, locate the row containing the target workflow version, and click Clone in the Operation column.
8. In the displayed dialog box, click OK.

Editing and Submitting a Workflow Version

1. Log in to the management console.
2. Click in the upper left corner of the management console and select a region or project.
3. Click in the upper left corner of the page and choose Security & Compliance > SecMaster.
4. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Workspaces > Management. In the workspace list, click the name of the target workspace.
   Figure 4 Workspace management page
   

5. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Security Orchestration > Playbooks. On the displayed page, select the Workflows tab.
   Figure 5 Workflows tab
   

6. In the Operation column of the target workflow, click More and select Version Management.
   Figure 6 Version Management page
   

7. On the Version Management slide-out panel for the workflow, in the Version Information area, locate the row containing the target workflow version, and click Edit in the Operation column.
8. On the workflow canvas, drag basic, workflow, and plug-in nodes from Resource Libraries on the left to the canvas on the right.

   Table 1 Resource Libraries parameters

   Parameter			Description
   Basic	Basic Node	StartEvent	The start of the workflow. Each workflow can have only one start node. The entire workflow starts from the start node.
   		EndEvent	The end of the workflow. Each workflow can have multiple end nodes, but the workflow must end with an end node.
   		UserTask	When the workflow execution reaches this node, the workflow is suspended and a to-do task is generated. The subsequent nodes in the workflow continue to be executed only after the user task is completed. Table 2 describes the manual review parameters.
   		SubProcess	Another workflow added in the workflow. It is equivalent to the loop body in the workflow.
   	System Gateway	ExclusiveGateway	For an exclusive, diverging gateway, the workflow chooses only the path that matches the conditional expression to proceed. For an exclusive, converging gateway, the workflow chooses the path arrives the gateway first to proceed.
   		ParallelGateway	For a parallel, diverging gateway, the workflow executes all paths arrive the gateway. For a parallel, converging gateway, the workflow executes the subsequent node only when all paths arrive the gateway. (If one path fails, the entire workflow fails.)
   		InclusiveGateway	For an inclusive, diverging gateway, the workflow executes all paths that match conditional expressions. For an inclusive, converging gateway, the workflow executes the subsequent node only when all paths executed during diverging arrive the gateway. (If one path fails, the entire workflow fails.)
   Workflows			You can select all released workflows in the current workspace.
   Plug-ins			You can select all plug-ins in the current workspace.

   Table 2 UserTask parameters

   Parameter	Description
   Primary key ID	A primary key ID is generated by the system. You can change it if needed.
   Name	Name of the manual review node.
   Valid Till	Time the manual review node expires.
   Description	Description of the manual review node.
   View Parameters	Click . On the Select Context pane displayed, select a parameter. To add a parameter, click Add Parameter.
   Manual Processing Parameters	Input Parameter Key. To add a parameter, click Add Parameter.

9. After the design is complete, click Save and Submit in the upper right corner. In the automatic workflow verification dialog box displayed, click OK.

   If the workflow verification fails, check the workflow based on the failure message.

Reviewing a Workflow Version

1. Log in to the management console.
2. Click in the upper left corner of the management console and select a region or project.
3. Click in the upper left corner of the page and choose Security & Compliance > SecMaster.
4. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Workspaces > Management. In the workspace list, click the name of the target workspace.
   Figure 7 Workspace management page
   

5. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Security Orchestration > Playbooks. On the displayed page, select the Workflows tab.
   Figure 8 Workflows tab
   

6. In the Operation column of the target workflow, click More and select Version Management.
   Figure 9 Version Management page
   

7. On the Version Management slide-out panel, click Review in the Operation column of the target workflow.
8. Set Comment. Table 3 describes the parameters.

   Table 3 Workflow review parameters

   Parameter	Description
   Comment	Select the review conclusion. Passed: If the workflow version is approved, the status of the workflow version changes to Activated. Reject. If the workflow version is rejected, the status of the workflow version changes to Rejected. You can edit the workflow version and submit it again.
   Reason for Rejection	Enter the review comment. This parameter is mandatory when Reject is selected for Comment.

   

   • You can edit a rejected workflow version. For details, see Managing Workflow Versions.
   • Workflow version status change:

     If the current workflow has only one workflow version, the status of the approved workflow version Status is Activated by default.

9. Click OK to complete the workflow version review.
