Consider a scenario
where you have a project with a task named "
Testing".
Once the task is initiated,
if you want to auto-update the Project Status as "In Testing", you can use the
Update Project Status
gallery function and associate it with a
Workflow.
By clicking the create button beside a Gallery Function, a custom function will be created, where you can make necessary changes to your Deluge code. After saving and
executing
this function, you associate it with a workflow to automate the process.
