20.1.4 About the Workflow Console and Workflow Details

The Workflow Console displays all workflows for a given report context. The Workflow Details page shows details for a specific workflow instance.

When you create the Workflow Console using the Create Page Wizard, the wizard creates two pages in the application: an overview page with all the workflows for the given report context, and a workflow details page that opens when a user selects a workflow from the overview page. You can further customize both pages with Page Designer.

The Workflow Console Page

The Workflow Console allows workspace users to view and manage their workflow instances. When you configure the Workflow Console, you have different Report Contexts to choose from:

• My Workflows, for workflow owners
• Admin Workflows, for workflow administrators
• Initiated by Me, for workflow initiators

Clicking on a workflow in the Workflow Console brings you to the workflow details page.

The Workflow Details Page

The workflow details page shows:

• activity instances and their states
• when an activity was started, completed, retried, faulted, or terminated.
• workflow instance variables, which can be edited by workflow administrators
• workflow instance parameters
• an audit history of the workflow instance

Depending on the workflow context, users can perform various actions from the workflow details page, including suspending, resuming, terminating, and retrying a workflow instance. To learn more about these actions, see Working with Workflows in Oracle APEX End User’s Guide.
