The Workflow component is a generic container for running workflows; you can target the specific container from which you want the workflow to run.
You also have the option to configure a persistent workflow, which is a workflow that continuously runs when you activate the workflow container (for example, by a Show command). This is useful when you want a workflow to be a permanent visual in your app.
Workflow components do not need a persistent workflow, as they can be targeted directly by the Run Workflow command and supplied with a specific workflow to run.
