Creating Advanced Workflows and Jobs
The previous chapter covered creating job templates and workflows inside the Automation controller. This chapter will go into detail about designing playbooks and jobs in a workflow to take advantage of workflows. This includes creating nodes that contain information so that users do not need to hunt in a playbook and using approval nodes to gain user input to allow a workflow to continue. Notifications are used to notify users and services about the specific events that have occurred.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Creating advanced workflows
- Using and configuring notifications
Technical requirements
