Ansible Tower Workflow Templates
Create a New Workflow

Enter the Templates menu and this time choose to add a Workflow Template. Fill out the form and hit save:

Now we can add another node to make sure that the job is being synced before the template is run:
Choose the hello world example you created:
And in a last extension we can add an Approval node to our flow that makes sure that an admin user approves every job run before they are executed against the production servers:
You can add a title and a timeout (optional) for the approval:
Now every time this workflow is triggered, it will show up in the Workflow Approvals Menu for you to approve it's execution:
