In various parts of the interface (including the workflow popup), you will see a circle followed by a workflow state name.
The default color indicate the nature of the workflow state.
The state indictator circle color can be customized for each state.
These default state indicator circle colors differentiate between content that is
in a draft state
in the final (published) state
in a state in a workflow where no published state has been set
The state color is used
in workflow builder for a state indicator circle and the state lozenge
in reports displaying the state name and state indicator circle
Colors listed on this page are the app default state colors; they can be overridden by the state color parameter by /wiki/spaces/AWPD/pages/6446047091.
State indicator circles - default colors
Undefined state
When the workflow does not define one state to be a published (final) state, all states in the workflow are shown with a blue state indicator circle in the workflow byline, workflow popup and in workflow builder.
The default blue colored indicator circle for each state in a workflow is only displayed when a final state has not been configured in the workflow and the default color for that state has not been changed.
Draft state
When the workflow includes a state defined as the published (final) state, all other states are displayed with an orange indicator circle in the workflow byline, workflow popup and in workflow builder.
The orange colored indicator circles are only displayed for each state in a workflow (except the final state), if the default color for these states has not been changed and a final state has been defined.
Final state
When the workflow includes a state defined as the published (final) state, this state is displayed with a green indicator circle in the workflow byline, workflow popup and in workflow builder.
The final state is defined using the final=true parameter. This can be set using workflow builder to /wiki/spaces/AWPD/pages/6446047091 and check the Final attribute option box.
A green indicator circle is only displayed for the final state in a workflow and the default color for that state has not been changed. Only one state in a workflow can be defined as a final state.
State indicator circles in workflow builder
In addition, in workflow builder the behavior or attribute of the state may be indicated with an icon appended to the state indicator circle.
A state that is the final state will include a flag icon.
A state including an approval will include a tick icon.
