Did You Know: You can save workflows as images

If you have to explain a process or script to someone, you will likely end up drawing them a picture to explain the process.  If your process or script is already a PowerWF Workflow, you can simply click the “Save” button and select “Save as Image” to get a representation of your workflow that you can email or include in a document or presentation.

Glancing at this workflow, it is pretty easy to tell what it does:

Just reading the names of the activities, it should be obvious that the workflow gets a list of processes where something is special about them and sets a variable based on the results.  It then checks some condition, and if that condition is met it starts a process.  Finally it opens a VM, powers it on, and logs into the guest.

  • PowerWF supports outputting the workflow as a PNG, JPG, BMP, TIFF, WMF, EXIF, and EMF
