A workflow is a collection of blocks that executes a set of commands to collect, process and display data.
The animation below shows how a workflow can be created from two blocks.
Building a Workflow
Once you have dragged the blocks from the toolbox into the workspace you need to connect blocks together to make a workflow.

- Step 4: Run the workflow
- Step 5: View the output on the map
Step 1: Drag your blocks into the workspace
- As described in the Toolbox article, drag at least one INPUT block and one OUTPUT block into the workspace.
- One of each block is the minimum requirement for a workflow.
Step 2: Connect the blocks together
- Drag the blocks together so the notches meet.
- You will hear a "click", and the block will be highlighted, once they connect.
Step 3: Check for errors
- If a red triangle appears
, you are not yet ready to run the workflow.
- Click on the red triangle and a text bubble will appear telling you what you are missing. This may be that the dates are incompatible with the data selection, or you still need to add a necessary block to make the workflow run.
- Follow the guidance in the text bubble.
Step 4: Run the workflow
- Click on the RUN WORKFLOW button to run the workflow.
- You can press the red stop button if you want to halt the process before it has finished running.
Step 5: View the output on the map
- Now you need to look at the output on the map.
For a quick start, use a pre-built workflow from the Workflows Library at the top of the workspace.
