Understanding Step Connectors

The steps are connected via links called “connector”. The plugin defines two types of links:

• Success
• Failure

Success:

This path connects two steps and will represent workflow advancement. The post/path will flow to one of the NEXT steps in the workflow.

Failure:

This path connects two steps and will represent workflow retreat. The post/path will flow to one of the PREVIOUS steps in the workflow.

You can have multiple success paths spawning from a given step. Same is true with the failure path. When there are more than one success/failure steps from a given step, the user is given a choice to select the step he/she wants the article to advance to.

The step drop down on the “Sign off” action will show all possible paths for a given success or failure path.
