Can I have multiple workflows in a space in Confluence Cloud?

Currently, the Comala Document Management app cannot have more than one active space workflow defined. There is no option to filter this space workflow application by the content label.

Only one workflow can be defined for a space in cloud and applied as a space workflow across all content in the space.

We do not have the label workflow filter capability in Comala Document Management Cloud.

Workaround

An alternative approach is to create a workflow that provides different approval 'paths' depending on your requirements.

If there are pages in your space that do not require a workflow, you could add a Not subject to workflow / No workflow needed state to your workflow as shown below.

 

 

An example workflow implementing this workaround is displayed below.

The initial state Start is used to select

  • one of two different paths (Path 1 Draft or Path 2 Draft) in the workflow with a different documentation process

  • transition to a state (Not Subject to Workflow) that does not require any workflow process.

The alternative to applying a space workflow is to use a workflow applied on a page-by-page basis (page workflow).
