Step templates

Step templates are preconfigured steps that perform different types of actions when a job is run, such as opening a map, running a geoprocessing tool, asking a question, and so on. Each step template contains a default name and values for step properties, options, and styling. When a step template is added to a workflow diagram, it becomes a unique step in the workflow and its default values can be customized as necessary.

The following table lists the step templates included in ArcGIS Workflow Manager:

Step template	Description
Add Attachment	Add attachments to a job.
Add Comment	Add comments to a job.
Cleanup	Delete active job versions associated with a job.
Create Job	Create jobs and automatically generate dependencies and establish parent/child relationships between jobs.
