# Workflows

In Laminar, every integration starts with a workflow.

A workflow is a sequence of steps that represent business logic. Think of it as a pipeline where data flows from one step to the next. Each step receives all the accumulated data from previous steps, processes it, and adds its own output to the flow. This creates a rich context that subsequent steps can use for decision-making and processing.

## Creating Workflows

As seen in the Getting Started guide, creating a workflow is straightforward. When naming your workflows, consider using descriptive names that clearly indicate their purpose.
