Predefined processes

Informatica provides predefined processes in Application Integration that you can use instead of designing your own process. When you configure a workflow in Metadata Command Center, you can choose a predefined process or design a new process that meets your requirement. In a predefined process, the steps of the workflow are already configured.
Predefined processes are available as an add-on bundle called Data Governance and Catalog Workflow Bundle in Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services Administrator. The bundle includes predefined processes that you can use to configure workflows for assets and events in Metadata Command Center. Download the Data Governance and Catalog Workflow Bundle from Administrator.
The Data Governance and Catalog Workflow Bundle contains the following processes:
You can use the bundle as a reference to create your own process, or copy the process to a project or a folder, configure an Administrator for all human tasks in the process, define the process based on your requirements, save, and then publish the processes in Application Integration. You can then use the processes that you published to configure workflows in Metadata Command Center.

Downloading and publishing predefined processes

Copy the bundle assets from the Data Governance and Catalog Workflow Bundle available in Administrator to your project folder. Open the copied process in Application Integration, configure an Administrator for all human tasks in the predefined process, save, and then publish the process.
Note: If a user is assigned a designer role, then create a custom role with all privileges in the Human Tasks service and assign the custom role to the user to copy the Data Governance and Catalog Workflow Bundle from Administrator to your project folder. For more information, see Minimum privileges to copy the Data Governance and Catalog Workflow Bundle and to create processes with human tasks.
