These concepts appear throughout the FlowKeyOps control panel and documentation.
Workspace and tenant
A workspace is the customer-facing boundary for your organization, plan, users, and environments. A tenant is the corresponding opaque identity used by the FlowKeyOps control plane. Use the tenant identifier when support asks for it, but do not treat it as a credential.
Workflow
A workflow is an automation definition managed as a versioned object. FlowKeyOps may show its platform, environment, current version, repository state, and drift status. The runtime still executes the workflow.
Environment
An environment is a controlled destination such as Development, Staging, or Production. Each environment has its own runtime connection and operational state. Your plan determines how many environments your workspace can use.
Desired state and runtime state
Desired state is the version your team has selected as authoritative. Runtime state is what the automation platform is currently running. When they differ, FlowKeyOps can report a drift finding.
Version and promotion
A version identifies a recorded workflow state. A promotion moves an approved version toward another environment, usually from Development to Staging and then Production. Promotion is a controlled change, not simply a file copy.
Deployment and reconciliation
A deployment applies an approved change to an environment. Reconciliation compares desired and runtime state and attempts to bring them back into agreement according to the action your team selects.
Secret metadata
FlowKeyOps displays safe facts about a credential–such as its name, target, environment, version, and synchronization status–without displaying the secret value itself.
Audit event
An audit event records an operation such as a promotion, synchronization, drift detection, or workflow update. Useful events identify the actor, action, target, environment, time, and result.
