Run-Time Environments

A run-time environment describes the environment that runs the workflow. This run-time environment is either a client host application or server-only environment. When a new workflow is created, the dashboard prompts the user to select the environment. More than one environment can be selected. In this way, each workflow is customized to run in a given environment.
