You can use workflow builder to create a new workflow or edit the name and description of an existing workflow using Edit Workflow in workflow builder.

If you open one of the bundled workflows added when installing the app, you can edit this workflow and save it with a new name to create a new workflow for the space.

To create a new workflow, you must open an existing workflow in the workflow builder visual editor. This can then be saved as a new custom workflow.

When editing a bundled workflow, it cannot be overwritten. You must rename the workflow to allow your changes to be saved.

Editing the workflow

Open workflow builder in the space settings Document Management dashboard

Choose the workflow name in the workflow panel open the Edit Workflow panel.

Edit the name and/or the workflow description

Choose Apply to save the changes in the workflow panel.

Choose Save in the navigator panel to update the workflow in workflow builder.

Choose Exit in the navigator panel to add the new custom workflow to the space settings dashboard. The custom workflow is the now current workflow in the space replacing the previous space workflow.

If you try to save an existing workflow without changing the name the bundled source workflow is unchanged and the changes are saved to a copy. This workflow will have the source workflow name but it will be appended with (Copy).
