Create a new workflow diagram

Create a workflow diagram. Diagrams can be saved in active or non-active (draft) mode. A diagram cannot be used to create jobs if the diagram is not active. A diagram will be validated when activated. The adminBasic or adminAdvanced privilege is required to create a workflow diagram.

Validation rules include:

The diagram only has one initial step.
The diagram cannot have orphan steps.
