In this post I’ve
mapped out (some of) the OnCommand Workflow Automation 4.1’s Web UI, with a few
extra notes (hence the titular +).
Access the WFA 4.1 Web UI at:
https://{wfa_host:port}
1) Main Tabs
The WFA 4.1 Web UI has four tabs.

are:

WFA links up with the Online Storage Automation Store (here) and displays the
available packs in the WFA 4.1 Web UI (need internet connection for this). You
can browse the available packs in the Web UI and click the ‘Download Pack’
button if you see something that you like.
