# Builder experience

This section describes in detail all of the concepts and features that constitute an Application, introduced in the How it Works section of this guide.

# Data tables and the Workflow apps connector

Each application has a dedicated data table that stores relevant information. For example, a PTO requests application has a corresponding PTO requests data table. The information contained in the PTO request data table forms the basis of the PTO requests application.

The Workflow apps connector enables you to integrate your applications into your workflows.

For example, you can use the New request trigger to start a workflow once a form has been submitted in an app, or the Assign task to users action to perform review/approval of a task using a custom page.


# Application settings

Application settings are available at the project level. To access application settings, select a project and navigate to Settings > App.

Learn how to set up your application.


# Pages

A Page is a UI screen for an application implemented using a WYSIWYG (what-you-see-is-what-you-get) interface.

Pages enable you to customize the following aspects of an application.

  • How the request is submitted

  • Customize how users submit a request by configuring the Page in Application settings > Creation Page setting.

  • How the request is reviewed

  • Customize how users review requests using a Page in Assign task to users action in the Workflow apps connector.
