Build an Application

To start, you must first build an application. Applications are user-defined templates for collecting, storing, and organizing your data. All automated activities and decisions are driven by how your applications store data. You also manage workflow from within applications, but we'll get to that in a bit.

First, you'll build your first application.

To build an application:

Open Swimlane and then, from the Welcome to Swimlane screen, click Start Building.

Alternatively, from the global navigation menu, select Applications & Applets.
From the Applications and Applets home page, click the plus menu icon, and then select Create a new application.
On the Create Application, General tab, give your application a name, and (optionally) a description, and then click Create.

Note: By default, when you create a new application, a new workspace with the name of the application is created. If you have a specific workspace where you would like this application to reside, you can specify it now on the Workspace tab of Create Application settings.
Once you click Create, Application Builder opens. The builder consists of multiple areas: Field Types and Layout elements, the Form Layout, and the Application Settings and Field Properties.
Select four Text fields and one Integration button and drag them to the Form Layout area.
Rename the first Text field, Description, then click Save.

You are now ready to create the workflow for the application.
