Using Workflows

A workflow is embodied in a valid ECMAscript file, containing a single global variable, workflow. This is an Object that must contain at least three members:

Table 16-1  Required Object Members
Required member
Type
Description
name
String
Name of the workflow
description
String
Description of workflow
execute
Function
Function that executes the workflow

Here is the canonically trivial workflow:

var workflow = {
       name: 'Hello world',
       description: 'Bids a greeting to the world',
       execute: function () { return ('hello world!') }
};

Uploading this workflow will result in a new workflow named "Hello world"; executing the workflow will result in the output "hello world!"
