Designer overview

Designer

Designer is the full view of Flow. It’s the same app, with the same organization, data and sign-in, but it shows every area instead of the essentials. Flow is for building and running automations. Designer is where you also build the AI that runs inside them, and where administrators set the rules.

Open Designer

In Flow, select Open full Designer near the top of the sidebar. Designer opens at designer.work.studio in a new tab, and you stay signed in.

You can also go straight to designer.work.studio and sign in with your work.studio account.

What Designer adds

Designer groups its menu into areas on a rail: Workspace, Governance and Settings. An Apps area appears once your organization has an app of its own.

Area	What’s there beyond Flow
Workspace	Agents, Knowledge, Approvals and Tasks, next to the automation pages. The menu is grouped into Create, Connect and Operate, and Logs is called Runs & Logs here.
Governance	Guardrails, AI Policies, Access Control, Cost Policies, Audit Log, Guardrail Activity, Team Activity, User AI Usage and AI Memory
Settings	Your organization’s settings
Apps	The apps you package for your customers. Flow shows these under Distribute.

Designer at designer.work.studio. The rail on the left has Workspace, Apps (Brightline has an app) and Governance, with Settings at the foot; the Workspace menu groups its pages under Create, Connect and Operate. Home shows the What do you want to automate? box, template cards, the New row, Recent and Operate.

Pages in this section

AgentsCreate an agent, give it instructions, tools and knowledge, test it, and use it in an automation.

KnowledgeAdd documents, sites and connected apps as knowledge an agent can search.

GuardrailsRules every AI call is checked against: block, mask or flag what shouldn't go through.

ApprovalsSteps waiting on a person, and where each person answers them.
