Managing Workflows
Visual workflows are the heart of the Nephos platform. It brings together the data and the re-usable executables you have registered. Workflows can be authored visually through a drag and drop interface. You can also view, export or import and delete existing workflows through the Workflows tab in the Nephos platform.
Authoring a new Workflow
Click on the Workflows tab
Open the Datasets/Executable side drawer by clicking on the Orange arrow on the right
You should be able to drag and drop datasets and executables you need onto the workflow canvas.
You can start building the workflow by drawing arrows from datasets to executable input arguments.
You can also start connecting the output of one executable as the input to a different executable.
Nephos will automatically ensure the names of these match up even if they are called different things.
Running and Troubleshooting a Workflow
Once you have built a basic version of your new workflow you can try running it by clicking the ‘Run’ button in the Workflow canvas.
Click on the 'Run' button to validate the workflow by quickly running it.
Nephos will also start preparing your workflow to run and show you progress and status of the runs
You can open the 'Run Info' drawer on the bottom to see the system and log output of the running workflow
Once the workflow completes, the status should indicate as such and output if any should be captured and/or saved.
