# Workflows overview

> Use workflows in Studio to build, execute, and manage orchestrated automation workflows for network operations.

Workflows in network management streamline and automate tasks, processes, and operations across a network to enhance efficiency, reduce errors, and ensure that tasks are performed consistently.

Use **Workflows** in **Studio** to build, execute, and manage orchestrated workflows:

* [Creating and Running Workflows](/itential-platform/studio/workflows/create-and-run-workflows)
* [Configuring and Managing Tasks](/itential-platform/studio/workflows/tasks/configure-manage-tasks)
* [Parallel Branching on the Canvas](/itential-platform/studio/workflows/parallel-branches)
* [Keyboard Shortcuts for the Canvas](/itential-platform/studio/workflows/keyboard-shortcuts)
* [Troubleshooting Canvas Errors and Warnings](/itential-platform/studio/workflows/troubleshoot)

Tasks are represented in the task palette and on the workflow canvas. When defining tasks to align with the services you want to automate, refer to the:

* [Task References Library](/itential-platform/studio/tasks/reference/task-references)
