Orchestrator packages tab

The Orchestrator Packages tab is used to add, display, activate and deactivate orchestrator packages.

An orchestrator package contains a workflow that connects several connector packages to one another. These are used, for example, if the use case requires interfaces to be executed in a certain order. Like connector packages, orchestrator packages also provide endpoints for calling them.

The following functions are available in the widgets:

Color indicator	Status of the connector package
Green	Enabled
Gray	Disabled
Yellow	Warning
Red	Error
