Disclosed are some implementations of systems, apparatus, methods and computer program products for executing process flows. A request to initiate execution of a flow is processed, where the request is received from a first user. The flow includes a plurality of flow elements, where each of the flow elements represents a corresponding set of computer-readable instructions. Execution of the flow is initiated and an operation mode assigned to one of the flow elements is determined. A set of computer-readable instructions corresponding to the flow element is executed according to the operation mode such that an identity of the first user is recorded in association with an operation on a database record, wherein permissions allocated in a user profile to the first user do not provide the first user permission to cause the operation on the database record. Output indicating a result of executing the set of computer-readable instructions according to the operation mode is provided for presentation via a graphical user interface (GUI).

System mode override during flow execution

Methods, systems, and devices for processing private data using a workflow action are described. A method may include identifying, at a user device that is authenticated to access a local system, an action of a workflow that is running on an external server that is external to the local system. The action may involve processing private data stored within the local system. The method may further include receiving, at the user device, a direct data query associated with the action, the direct data query including a set of encoded instructions that are self-extracting upon being executed by a browser of the user device. The method may further include executing, by the browser of the user device, the set of encoded instructions to directly access the private data and transmitting an indication of a result of the action based on directly accessing the private data.

Processing private data using a workflow action

Described is a method in a cloud-based system for implementing changes to flow engine software that executes user-specific flows for a plurality of users. The method includes: receiving a request to load and execute a user-specific flow; identifying an API version identifier for the user-specific flow; loading the user-specific flow; determining whether a software change to the flow engine software should be applied when executing the user-specific flow based on the API version identifier; and executing the user-specific flow using the flow engine software with the software change when it is determined, based on the API version identifier, that the software change to the flow engine software should be applied.

System and method for flow runtime versioning

A processor can cause operation tracking screens to be presented on a display. The operation tracking screens can include first and second screen areas. Some of the first screen areas can have graphical control elements configured to receive information associated with actions associated with a sequence of operations. The actions can include first and second actions performed concurrently. The second screen areas can have a graphical representation of stages of the sequence of operations. The graphical representation of the stages can be of a default sequence of the stages, in response to an initiation of the sequence of operations, and can be modified to include a graphical representation of an additional stage in response to a determination of a result of a condition being a specific value. The processor can receive signals associated with the information associated with the actions and can cause the sequence of operations to be processed.

Processing a sequence of operations using operation tracking screens

Systems, methods, and apparatuses for implementing dynamic creation of an external code segment within a cloud based computing environment. For instance, an exemplary system having at least a processor and a memory therein includes means for executing object code comprising software instructions that when executed create an instance of an external segment of software instructions that is to perform business logic, wherein a name of the external segment of software instructions is to be first received during runtime of the object code.
