Introduction:
This guide provides an overview of Freestyle Orchestrator and Scripts, and includes steps to create Freestyle workflows based on sequence and conditions across multiple resources on Windows and macOS. It is intended for IT professionals who are responsible for managing and deploying software and resources in a Workspace ONE environment.
Understanding Workflows:
A workflow is a series of actions or tasks that are automated and executed in a specific order. In Freestyle Orchestrator, workflows can be created using a drag-and-drop interface, and can include a wide range of resources such as applications, scripts, and device configurations. Workflows can be triggered by a variety of events, such as the creation of a new device or the installation of a specific application.
Creating Freestyle Workflows:
To create a Freestyle workflow, follow these steps:
1. Open the Workspace ONE UEM console and navigate to the Freestyle Orchestrator page.
2. Click on the “Create” button to begin creating a new workflow.
3. In the “Workflow Name” field, enter a name for your workflow (e.g., ” Corporate Access Workflow”).
4. Select the resources that you want to include in your workflow. For example, you might select the Workspace ONE Tunnel app, Per-App VPN profiles, DLP solutions to enhance device security preventing data leakage, and more.
5. Use the drag-and-drop interface to arrange the resources in the order that you want them to be executed.
6. Click on the “Save” button to save your workflow.
7. To publish your workflow, navigate to the Workflows page, select your workflow, and click on the “Publish” button.
Creating a Conditional Workflow:
To create a conditional workflow, follow these steps:
1. Open the Workspace ONE UEM console and navigate to the Freestyle Orchestrator page.
2. Click on the “Create” button to begin creating a new workflow.
3. In the “Workflow Name” field, enter a name for your workflow (e.g., ” Corporate Access Workflow”).
4. Select the resources that you want to include in your workflow. For example, you might select the Workspace ONE Tunnel app, Per-App VPN profiles, DLP solutions to enhance device security preventing data leakage, and more.
5. Use the drag-and-drop interface to arrange the resources in the order that you want them to be executed.
6. To add a condition to your workflow, click on the “Add Condition” button.
7. In the “Condition” field, enter the condition that you want to use to trigger the workflow (e.g., “If the device is enrolled in the corporate network”).
8. Click on the “Save” button to save your workflow.
9. To publish your workflow, navigate to the Workflows page, select your workflow, and click on the “Publish” button.
Troubleshooting Freestyle Workflows:
To troubleshoot a Freestyle workflow, follow these steps:
1. Open the Workspace ONE UEM console and navigate to the Freestyle Orchestrator page.
2. Select your workflow and click on the “Edit” button.
3. In the “Workflow Details” section, look for any error messages or notifications that might provide clues about what went wrong.
4. Check the logs for any errors or issues that might be causing the problem.
5. If you are still having trouble, contact VMware Technical Support for further assistance.
Conclusion:
Freestyle Orchestrator and Scripts provide a powerful way to automate the deployment of software and resources in a Workspace ONE environment. By following the steps outlined in this guide, you can create Freestyle workflows based on sequence and conditions across multiple Resources on Windows and macOS. Remember to troubleshoot your workflows carefully and check the logs for any errors or Issues that might be causing problems. With these tools, you can streamline your deployment process and improve your end-User Experience.
