Customization:

By default, all pre-defined workflows are included in the smart blocks menu after opening via the trigger. If you would like to exclude the pre-defined workflows so that only the custom ones are shown, head to the Smartblocks tab in your Roam Depot Setting enable the Custom Only option. You will need to refresh Roam after checking this option for the setting to take effect.
