Nice job. There is one feature that could be interesting to implement: Giving the usual users the possibility to add additional user-based workflows and/or also to give them the opportunity to display existing workflows in the graph. The rest of the comments are mainly cleaning the code a bit.

Very nice integration, here are some open points I found when testing the workflow integration:

• As a guest, I can't see the Workflows in the navigation
• We should also show the last updated timestamp in the overview table and the number of steps
• When rename the workflow, the button text is "Create New Workflow" instead of "Rename workflow"
• It would be good to also export a single workflow, e.g. with an additional export button in the workflow list.
• In the workflow navigation (where I add/delete new steps), when I hover over an action button, there should be a tooltip for the explanation what that buttons do
• As a user I can see all Workflows in readonly (which is good), but I can't create a copy of an existing one
• Also I can't copy a specific step from an existing one or see any information of the steps (like the configuration json etc.)
• As a user it is also not clear to me, why I can't do all those things, maybe we should add an additional Flag (like System Workflow yes/no) in the table
• When I copied some of the workflows, as a user I can see them in the Dashboard --> Studies --> Templates in the Workflow List multiple times (needs a better filter mechanism)
• If I edit an existing workflow steps, the configuration json is not filled out, is it loaded correctly?
• Nice to have feature (low prio): When important from json and there are multiple workflows, select which one to import
