Workflows are the primary component of ACP. Each workflow is an independent entity using its own connectors, inside which multiple steps can be created to chain together actions from separate API services.
A new workflow can be created from the “New Workflow” button in the primary actions menu, or by the “New Workflow” button just after login.

The workflow name can be edited by clicking the "edit" button that appears when hovering over the name, then clicking "close" when complete.
The ‘slug’, below the workflow name, is the means by which the workflow is executed from outside ACP. It is the distinct URL for the workflow. The slug can be edited, but not the path leading to the ACP projects folder.
