The *Run Workflow* task lets the user integrate a workflow within a workflow. It works on the concept of a nested workflow. You can therefore execute multiple workflows within one workflow.

1. First, we will drag and drop the *Run Workflow* object from the Toolbox. Right-click on the object’s header, and select *Properties* from the context menu.
