Different ways to run a Workflow

Aside from starting Workflows from the Workflow Design pane, there are three ways that Workflows are started:

• Run on Demand - allows a Workflow to be run by a user from the Console, or via an API - see Run Now.
• Always On - enables a Workflow to be run continuously until it is explicitly stopped. The first step in these Workflows should be a Trigger Node. See Always On for more information.
• API - a third party app or service invokes the Workflow via REST API. See API for more information.
