  • Groups: Use the Group drop-down menu to toggle between Groups and see the corresponding workflows.

  • Select a Published or Draft workflow to open the right-hand menu.

  • Workflow: Details of the workflow template.

  • Name: The name of the workflow template that is displayed to the end-user.

  • Categories: Groupings of similar workflow questions that are displayed as sections.

  • Where does this appear to the end-user? At the bottom of the screen when completing the workflow and on the completed workflow page.

  • Save: save the template as a Draft.

  • The button to open Mobilize is also on the right-hand side of the screen. Use Mobilize to generate new workflow templates instead of starting from an existing template.

Understanding Workflow Components

Every workflow consists of:

  1. Workflow Questions: Core content of the workflow.

  2. Routes: The pathways of the workflow (Default, Rule).

  3. Nodes

    1. Start Node: Required starting point.

    2. End Node: Required (one or more); Completes the workflow.

    3. Notes Node: Required starting point for Notes added after the workflow is completed.

  4. Back to Dashboard: Optional node that sends the user back to the Anvl app dashboard and keeps the workflow in-progress.

Editing Workflows

Click on a workflow in Drafts.

  • Add new questions:

    • Open the library.

    • Drag & drop new questions into the workflow diagram.

  • Edit questions: Click a question to modify text, type, category, and other configurable options.

  • Delete questions (⚠️ Deleting existing questions may break reports): Select the Question and hit the backspace/delete key.

  • Configure Routes (workflow paths): Drag from one node to another to create new routes.

  • Default Route: The standard path if no conditions apply.

  • Rule-Based Route: Conditional logic paths (e.g., If user selects “No,” follow a different branch).

Picture

Configuring Routes

Routes determine the pathway a user follows throughout the workflow. To create a new route, drag from the endpoint of one question to the starting point of the next question.

Each question must have one default route leading from it. Routes are color-coded by their type:

  • Blue: Default

  • Yellow: Intervention

  • Red: Stop

  • Black: Rule

When you click on a route, you have configuration options:

  • Type: Default or Rule

    • Default: The standard pathway

    • Rule: Follows conditional logic

  • Launch New Workflow: Select a workflow to launch from that pathway

  • Escalation Type: None, Intervention, or Stop

For Rule routes, use the Rule Builder to set up the logic:

  • Match: User input must exactly match the selected value

  • Any of These: User can select any of the checked options

  • All of These: User must select all options (used with checklist and multi-select questions)

For Advanced Rule Logic, click the code editor button (stars) to set up advanced logic. To return to the Rule Builder, click the wrench icon.

JSON Logic Guide for Advanced Workflow Logic

Use this guide to apply logic rules in workflows (e.g., show/hide fields, require answers, etc.).

Format

Each logic rule uses this structure:

{ "operator": [ value1, value2 ] }

Variables

To reference a field’s answer:

{ "var": "Field Name" }

Field names are case-sensitive. Use the exact label from the workflow.

Logic Nesting

Operators can be nested inside each other for more complex conditions.

{"or":[{"in":["Eye Protection",{"var":"response"}]},{"in":["Face Shields",{"var":"response"}]}]}

The example above reads as: If the response is either “Eye Protection” OR “Face Shields”

Supported Operators

"==", Equals

"!=", Not equal

"!", NOT (negation)

"in", Checks if a value exists in a list (used for checkboxes / multi-select)

"and", Returns true if all conditions are true

"or", Returns true if any condition is true
