A State Machine layout is a type of workflow that allows developers to create complex and dynamic automation processes that can branch based on user input or predefined conditions. A State Machine layout consists of states, transitions, and triggers. A state represents a specific step or action in the process, a transition defines the direction of the flow between states, and a trigger determines when a transition should occur. A State Machine layout can have only one initial state, which is the starting point of the process, and multiple final states, which are the possible end points of the process.
