          Building Blocks of a CMS Workflow

          Building Blocks of a CMS Workflow

          CMS workflows are built on Flow Orchestrations that use common flow and orchestration elements in addition to process and step types that are unique to CMS.

          CMS-Specific Orchestration Elements

          Stages, steps, and flows are the building blocks of any orchestration, but CMS workflows contain special, CMS-specific items.

          • Flow Orchestration for CMS: a custom process type that includes all the CMS-specific step types and makes them available in the Workflows component. For a workflow to appear in your CMS workspace and to use the CMS step types, you must use the Flow Orchestration for CMS process type.
          • CMS Role-Based Interactive: an interactive step type similar to standard interactive steps, but specialized to include CMS roles.
          • CMS Modification Status: a background step that locks or unlocks content edits for CMS content items. When unlocked, content can be edited.
          • CMS Publication Readiness: a background step that sets a publication readiness flag for CMS content items. When the flag is set to ready, the content is publishable.
          • CMS Publish Variant: a background step that automatically publishes a content variant. 
          • CMS Unpublish Variant: a background step that automatically unpublishes a published content variant.

          Common Orchestration Elements

          Using CMS-specific building blocks is necessary for your workflows, but you can enhance them using common building blocks made for any flow.

          • Invocable actions
          • Screen flows
          • Standard steps
