What it does
Workflows in Gravity Flow can grow long, and a plain step list makes it hard to follow how approvals, assignments and automated steps connect. This extension adds a Flowchart view that presents those steps as a diagram. Teams can read a complex sequence at a glance, which helps when explaining a process to colleagues or stakeholders who never open the workflow settings. It also does this inside Gravity Flow, so you do not need a separate third-party tool to draw your processes.
The flowchart stays in sync with your workflow. When you add, edit, delete or reorder a step, the chart reflects the change right away. An auto-layout option arranges the diagram for you, and you can drag steps around the canvas to set your own layout. Zoom and panning help on large diagrams, and you can switch back to the standard step list at any time. Print support lets you bring a copy to meetings or keep it with your documentation.
Best for
- Sites running approval or assignment workflows in Gravity Flow
- Admins managing long, multi-step business processes
- Teams that need to explain workflows to stakeholders
Features
Flowchart view for workflows
See Gravity Flow steps as a graphical diagram on a canvas, giving you a clearer picture of complex sequences than the traditional step list.
Automatic layout
Generate an organized flowchart automatically, so you spend less time lining up steps by hand before you can read the workflow.
Drag-and-drop step placement
Move steps around the canvas with your mouse to arrange the layout in whatever way makes the process easiest to follow.
Zoom and panning
Zoom in on one part of a workflow or out for the full picture, and grab the canvas to move across large diagrams.
Print support
Produce printed copies of your workflow diagrams for meetings, training sessions or internal documentation.
Switch between views
Toggle between the standard step list and the Flowchart view depending on which one suits the task or the person using it.
Real-time step syncing
Any step you add, modify, delete or reorder shows up in the flowchart immediately, so the diagram always matches the actual workflow.

It does. Adding, modifying, deleting or reordering steps is reflected in the flowchart right away, so the diagram stays accurate without you redrawing anything.
Can I still use the regular step list?
Yes. You can switch between the standard step list and the Flowchart view whenever you like, so each person on your team can work in the view they prefer.
Can I share a workflow diagram offline?
The extension includes print support, so you can print a workflow diagram for meetings or documentation. Auto-layout and zoom help you get the chart readable before printing.
