A guide is a set of screens that prompts users to review, enter, or confirm data. You create a guide in Application Integration. When you create a human task asset in Application Integration, you can choose to use a guide to display a wizard for task owners' ease.

For example, a step might display a loan application or prompt the user to approve a loan amount that is requested by a customer. The steps in a guide interact with your application by extracting and storing data. Guides run within mobile apps or on traditional platforms such as a PC or a Mac.

If you select a guide at the time of creating a human task asset in Application Integration, the task in the inbox uses the screens configured in the guide to display data. The input fields, output fields, and outcomes of the selected guide must match the values that you specify in the human task asset. If you do not select a guide at the time of creating a human task, the task uses the default rendering.
