Designing workflows

Defining a workflow definition starts with defining a process definition. Collibra Data Intelligence Cloud uses the Flowable workflow engine for managing its process definitions. Flowable provides a free Eclipse plugin that can be used to design process definitions. For additional information, consult the Flowable documentation.

After you have defined a process definition, you have a bpmn or bpmn20.xml file that is ready to be deployed in Collibra. When you upload a process definition, Collibra creates a corresponding workflow definition that is handled as an asset. After that, you can configure the integration of the uploaded process with Collibra.
