Workflows
New in Logos 8, Workflows are detailed step-by-step study guides for any study process, from devotionals to expository sermon prep. You can follow Workflows provided in Logos, or create your own.
Whatever the workflow, at every step Logos pulls together relevant tools and resources to help you accomplish the task at hand. It also stores your insights from throughout the study process in the new Notes tool.
We've prepared training articles and videos to get you started with Workflows:

Workflows are important to me personally. I often go too academic and forget personal application. Workflows allow me to still go into academic mode while reminding me to come back to personal application. This has greatly enhanced my personal study time.

I LOVE workflows. I could go on, but all I'd be doing is repeating myself over and over again. I love workflows, I love workflows, I love workflows...

After the update I'm not seeing workflows in guides. I'm a cloud - essentials subscriber. Any suggestions?

Has the update downloaded and indexed?
Type "Update now" in the command bar to check if you're not sure.

I'm sorry. I still don't see Workflows. Also, sorry for the lack of clarity. I was on break from class earlier and type in a hurry.

Casey, Workflows should be available for you if you've installed the Logos 8 update. You'll find them in the Guides menu. If you don't see them, restart the app and try again.

Adam, I ran "Update Now" indexed, and have restarted the app. I still don't see Workflows in guides.
Software version is 7.19.0.0009

You aren't running Logos 8. Isn't it required for Workflows?
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

Shouldn't I have access to it as a Essentials subscriber?

Casey,
Somewhat confusingly, just doing an "Update" within 7.19 won't get you 8. On the home page within Logos 7 desktop app, you should have a notification announcing Logos 8, with a "Get it now" link (or something like that). That will open your browser and walk you through a $0.00 order for Logos 8. At that point doing "Update" within Logos 7 will get you the upgrade to 8.

Thanks Donnie. I see the Logos 8 announcements, but no links except for one that takes me to the regular Logos 8 sales page.

I'm liking the workflows so far. I haven't customized any yet. I'm just going through the Inductive Bible study one and I like it. I thought it would be to rigid but it's working. I'm glad we're able to customize them, I might want to reorder some steps.

The same thing is happening to me - when I click on the link provided earlier, it takes me to a cart with a $3,000 update. Any help would be appreciated.

I purchased the L8 Lutheran Starter (I had the L7 Lutheran Starter), and would love to utilize the Workflow Editor, but it's greyed out. How can I gain access to the editor?

You have to purchase the feature set as well I believe.

As far as I can see, David, that gives access to the base workflow functionality, but not the workflow editor.

When I go to https://www.logos.com/product/165933/logos-8-starter-feature-upgrade it says that I own everything.

My apologies, I missed that he was talking about the editor and not just workflows. Graham is right, you need the full feature upgrade.

You own everything in Starter, but as Graham says, Edit Workflows is a separate feature only available in the Full Feature pack.

Hello,
There doesn't seem to be any information in the new help tutorials and webpages on workflows as to whether they link up to the sermon editor. I presume they will be indexed and searchable, but am wondering to what level they work with other Logos tools and features.

I have downloaded a few workflows from other users but they are not showing up in my Logos. I have restarted a few times and they do not show in my custom workflows or anywhere else that I can find.

Strange - I've just tried this and it works fine

Are you doing something different?

I have tried several and the results are hit and miss. Some of the ones I add to my docs show up and then others don't. Though all of them that I add do show up in my docs on the logos webpage but not in my workflows in the software.

Joey,
Did the public workflows you saved to your docs ever show up in your software? I am having the same issue.
0 -
Some did and some did not. It has been hit and miss. Add them through the software though and not the webpage. I haven't had any luck adding them through the webpage.

I have tried adding several public workflows to my docs (in the software). None of them are showing up, though they are listed in my docs on the webpage. I find it strange too that when I view "Docs | Yours" there is no filter type for "workflow" or "workflow template" however when I view "Docs | Public" "workflow template" is an option for filter type. When I "add to your docs" on a selected workflow template it just disappears from "Docs | Public." Not sure what is going on. Maybe a bug? If anyone discovers what's going on, please let me know.[:D]

I'm having the same issue. I've added a couple of workflow templates through the software but neither them are showing up. And they're no longer listed in the Public Shared Workflow template list for me to try to re-add them.
I have been able to add other document types both through the software and the website with no problem. Not sure why I can't add workflow templates.

I'm having the exact same issue. Someone please fix this. Is there a bug report for it already?

I am sorry to hear that you are having this difficulty, Daniel.
You are replying to a thread from early 2019. The problem you are experiencing is not necessarily the same problem that users experienced back then.
Please start a new thread, and give a more detailed description of the problems you have been having.

Hi,
Is there a way to edit already existing workflows instead of creating something very similar from scratch?
