Abstract
Disclosed are some implementations of systems, apparatus, methods and computer program products for executing process flows. A package including flow permission metadata indicating a set of flow permissions associated with a set of flows is obtained. Upon receiving a request to initiate execution of a flow in the set of flows, the flow permission metadata is accessed. The flow includes a plurality of flow elements, where each of the flow elements represents a corresponding set of computer-readable instructions. Based upon the set of flow permissions of the flow permission metadata, it is determined whether the user is permitted to execute the flow. Execution of the flow is initiated upon determining that the user is permitted to execute the flow. During execution of the flow, flow performance data such as an identification of paths of the flow that have been traversed may be obtained, where each of the paths corresponds to one or more of the flow elements. Metrics associated with the flow can be updated based, at least in part, on the flow performance data. An indication of the set of metrics can be provided for presentation via a display.
