# Workflows

The Workflows setting can be managed under the *Settings >  Library > Automations > Workflows* menu*.*

The **Workflows** feature allows you to automate complex asset management processes. It integrates internal components (such as approval flows and metadata) with external systems (like webhooks or APIs) to streamline asset validation for internal or external use.<br>
