How to Create Tasks and Workflows

Tasks and workflows are created inside an experiment in the gray canvas.

A task is a sub-unit of the experiment. Each task can be a stand-alone unit or you can connect multiple tasks into an experimental workflow. Workflows allow you to show progression, direction, relationships, and assign inventory items to several tasks at once.how to create tasks and workflows-1
