The Open Web App step can be used to integrate web pages and web apps in the Workflow Manager web app. This allows Workflow Manager users to seamlessly interact with the web page or web app and Job panel on the Workflow Manager Work page.
When the step is run, the web page or application defined in the step opens in the Work page. Step information is displayed in the Details panel and can be minimized by clicking the Minimize button 
. If your account has the Update Properties role, you can update job properties on the Details panel.
When the step is running you can perform the following actions:
- Click the Pause Step button
to pause the step and return to the Work page. - Click the Complete Step button
to finish the step and return to the Work page.
Tip:
If the step has not been configured with Can Be Skipped, the step must be run or paused at least once before it can be finished.
Note:
If the step is already being run by another person, the step's status will display Running 
.
