Configuring workflows (On-premises)

When building a workflow system using FotoWeb or integrating FotoWeb into an existing workflow, Actions and Markers are the key components. Users can drop assets onto an action to transfer them to a destination, or to trigger a metadata operation or execute a webhook to integrate with other systems.

Actions are used when you want to send a file to a destination such as a network share or a workflow process.

  1. Creating an action
  2. Adding information about the requesting user in an action
  3. Cloning an action
  4. Configuring image cropping in an action
  5. Controlling who has access to use an action
  6. Deleting the original asset
  7. Executing a webhook when running an action
  8. Hiding an asset from view after processing
