Workspace & templates

Your workspace is the home for your diagrams. Start with a blank diagram when you know what you want to model, or use a template when you want a working example to explore.

What the workspace contains

Each diagram card shows its title, description, tags, and when it was last changed. Open a card to continue in the editor. Use search to find words in a title, description, or tag; use the tag filter to narrow a larger library.

You can sort diagrams by recent activity or title. The options menu on a card lets you copy its editor link, organize its tags, or remove it from the active workspace.

Start with a blank diagram

  1. In My workspace, select Create diagram.
  2. Add a short title. A description and tags are optional, but they make the diagram easier to find later.
  3. Create the diagram, then select Open editor. Mockflow also creates a starter scenario that you can complete when the diagram is ready to run.

Start with a template

The template gallery contains complete examples you can inspect before using them. Current examples cover a cache lookup, queue retries and a dead-letter path, an event sent to several consumers, and a multi-step order process.

  1. Open Templates and choose an example.
  2. Read How it works, Run this, and You will see to understand the example.
  3. Select Use template. Mockflow creates a personal copy in your workspace and opens it in the editor.
  4. Change the copy freely. The gallery example remains unchanged.
Note

A template includes both a diagram and a runnable scenario. It is a learning aid and a starting point, not a claim about how your live system is built.

Keep diagrams easy to find

Use short, consistent tags such as a team, business area, or system name. Tags are for organization only; they do not change a diagram or who can access it.

Deleting a diagram removes it from the active workspace. Mockflow keeps its saved draft and checkpoints recoverable. If another diagram links to it, the delete dialog warns you before you continue.
