How to Use Confluence: A Step-by-Step Guide to Setting Up an Approval Workflow

When installing the Confluence app, you have several different workflow types available to choose from. Upon installation, a new menu option called 'Workflows' will appear in the Space tools button. This feature allows you to share workflows across your entire instance or limit them to specific spaces.

To use Comala Workflows effectively, you'll need to set up an instance for each workflow. This process involves installing and configuring both Comala Workflows and Comala Publishing apps.

In this article, we will walk you through the steps of setting up an approval workflow in Confluence for blog articles, newsletters, and other published content. If you're struggling to master the editing process for your articles bound for publication, these tools are definitely worth exploring.

To get started, you'll need two separate spaces: one will serve as a draft during the editing process, accessible only to relevant individuals until final approval is given. The second space will host the article in its validated format and be available in a public space.

By following this guide, you can streamline your content creation and publication process using Confluence and Comala Workflows. Whether you're looking to improve collaboration or ensure quality control, setting up an approval workflow in Confluence is a straightforward and effective way to achieve your goals.
