What is a Gateway?

Gateways are elements used to control the flow based on the routing rules .We want to modify our process so that it’s more dynamic.

Drag and drop the gateway and click on wrench to choose the gateway type.

By default, an exclusive gateway is chosen. You can choose a different gateway by clicking on .

Exclusive Gateways

Exclusive gateways are used to select only one path between two tasks within a process workflow. The decision of which path the flow will take is based on the condition that define the unique outcome flow. At the merging gateway, the process will wait for one of the incoming paths to activate the outgoing sequence.

Parallel Gateways

Parallel Gateway is used to represent two tasks that are going to be executed at the same time. Parallel Gateways are used to either split the workflow into multiple parallel paths or merge multiple parallel paths. No conditions are evaluated by Parallel Gateways. At the merging gateway, the process will wait for all incoming paths before activating the outgoing sequence.

Inclusive Gateways

Inclusive gateways are used to create one or more parallel flows based on the condition. Use the same gateway element to split and join paths.
