Work with workspace
The Project Explorer lists the workspaces. Workspace is a collection of projects that includes workflows, processes, resources, and connections.
It is recommended to avoid creating workspaces in shared locations, as you may be unable to select workflow or resources in the Workflow Executor step or entry and publish the workflow in Process Studio.
The chapter includes the following topics:
