# Flows

> Overview of the CData Arc Flows page, workspace grid, and flow canvas.

The flows page enables you to create data-processing workflows by linking connectors together in logical sequences. Click **Flows** on the navbar to open the workspaces grid. It is composed of [workspace cards](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/cloud/en/flows/workspaces.md#workspace-cards) for each workspace you have access to. To work in a specific workspace, click the card to open the flow canvas for that workspace.

> [!NOTE]
>
> You can toggle between two types of connector displays:
>
> * **Workspace View** displays the workspace cards that enable you to design your flows. The previous image is of the workspace view.
> * **Connector View** displays a list of all connectors in your application. Use this view to perform bulk edits on connectors. See [Connector View and Bulk Editing Connectors](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/cloud/en/connectors/bulk-edit-connectors.md) for details.

### Flow Canvas Example

The following image shows a simple flow canvas that links a trigger **AS2\_Amazon** connector to a terminal **File\_Dropoff** connector (see [Connector Categories](../connectors#categories) for more information about trigger and terminal connectors):

With this connection in place, any files that the **AS2\_Amazon** connector processes are automatically passed to the **File\_Dropoff** connector as the final step of the flow. The File connector drops off files to the underlying disk. See [Designing a Flow](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/cloud/en/flows/designing-a-flow.md) for more information about how to link connectors in a flow.
