Assets - Any Workflow-related item

Recipe - An individual workflow comprised of a Trigger leading to a series of Actions

Community Library - Collection of recipes from Workato from all apps across their system. These are all apps that can establish a connection through Workato.

Wodify Library - Internal set of "Cookbooks" - bundles of recipes that can be downloaded. These bundles are not activated upon download, they must be individually enabled after download.

Environment Properties - Customizable table of values, some of which update from business level settings, some are customizable (like social media links) - other values can be added that are location-agnostic (establishing a separate email address from those listed in business settings)

Lookup Tables - A storage table: Collections of data and values that can be inserted into recipes. 

Connection - Built in connection between Workato and an App. The actual link between apps. 

Recipe Function - A reusable chunk of Recipe. These can only be triggered within a recipe. For example, a recipe can trigger a recipe function to perform a complex repeated task, like checking to see if a lead should still be enrolled in the recipe based on client status, trial usage, etc. 

Test Recipe - Run recipe on a one-off, non repeating basis without starting it on an ongoing basis. Test criteria can be created to run time-specified tests. Can also create "if" conditions to determine outcome of test under other conditions.

Action in App - Action by an app as a result of a Workflow

If Condition - Condition that is an independent variable that could be one of multiple potential options

If / Else Condition - While an If condition grabs only the yes state or the no state, If/Else is a fork in the road - if yes do A, if no do B (Great for checking for "Stop Job" in the midst of a longer workflow.

Repeat Action - Do an action another time after the results of the initial action have been modified, Do action A, apply a condition, then do action A again from the list established after that condition is applied. It's a central functioning in Workflows that diverts from a straight path downward - 

Call Function - referencing an external recipe to perform a task without rebuilding the recipe.

Stop Job - Stop performing a workflow in the case that you either want to discontinue it or if it is not behaving correctly.

Handle Errors - Monitor for errors in actions, similar to the try/catch concept in programming languages. When an error occurs, you have the chance to:

• Retry the sequence of actions again, in case it was a temporary error such as network issues, or
• Take remedial actions, such as notifying users of the error through email or error messages in the app, or to carry out a rollback (for example, you can reverse the job by deleting any created or half-created records).

Test Cases - A test case is a set of mock data and checks for specific steps of a particular recipe. You can create multiple test cases for any recipe you plan to test.

A test case defines:

• What steps should use mock (simulated) data and the mock data that should be used.
• What step output data must be checked and the expected result of the check.

For each test case, you can add a unique name and provide a description of the purpose of the test case.
