Use descriptive names
Name workflows clearly: “Weekly Security Audit Report” not “Report v3”
Add descriptions
Write descriptions explaining what the workflow does and when to use it
Tag consistently
Establish tag conventions and apply them consistently across workflows
Clean up unused workflows
Disable or delete workflows that are no longer needed
Review periodically
Regularly review your workflow library to keep it organized
Limit tag proliferation
Use a small set of meaningful tags rather than many specific ones
Organization at Scale
As your workflow count grows:Naming conventions
Establish patterns for workflow names:[Team] - [Action] - [Target][App] - [Operation][Frequency] [Action] Report
- “IT - Create User - Google Workspace”
- “GitHub - Add to Repository”
- “Weekly Security Audit Report”
Tag taxonomy
Create a tag hierarchy:- By function: Onboarding, Offboarding, Security, Reports
- By audience: Self-service, Admin-only, Internal
- By priority: Critical, Standard, Low-priority
Team structure
Consider how teams map to workflow ownership:- IT team - User management, access workflows
- Security team - Audit and compliance workflows
- Engineering - Developer tooling workflows
- HR - People operations workflows
