# Create Workflow

> Learn the fastest way to create and manage workflows in zyme.

## Overview

Workflows define a sequence of actions for your process. Each workflow belongs to a specific project or team and usually requires a name or title, while all additional settings (like triggers or templates) are optional.

## Quick creation methods

* **Press `W`** anywhere in the app to open the "Create Workflow" modal instantly.
* **Click the “New” button**, located in the sidebar or top toolbar.
* **Use our API** to programmatically create workflows—ideal for integrating with external tools or automating creation.

## Creating a new workflow

When you open the **Create Workflow** modal, you’ll see fields to define the title, URL, description, and optional labels for your workflow.
