Set action labels

This topic describes how to edit labels and notes for workflow actions displayed on the designer canvas.

Each action on the designer canvas has top, bottom, left, and right labels as well as note options for use when printing workflows (and when hovering over the actions on the designer canvas). Adding labels and notes to workflow actions provides users with more context around what the action is doing without the need to see the workflow action configuration. Note options can be configured from the configuration settings dialog box only.

To edit action labels from the designer canvas

  1. Click the top label of the action (action title) and edit as desired.

    Note: The action title is used in workflow reports to indicate the current status of a running workflow.

  2. Edit bottom, left, and right labels as desired.
  3. Click away from the workflow action to commit changes to the labels.

To edit action labels and notes from the configuration settings dialog box

  1. On the ribbon at the top of the configuration settings dialog box, click Labels to display the Labels tab.
  2. Update labels and note settings as desired and then click Save.
