@thantos where can I find this information?

I am not 100% sure what this is referring to.

If in a workflow, workflow.startExecution should fail (or we should make it do something).

the workflow name can not exist.

And the execution name cannot start with %

It can also fail if the name already exists and the input is different. We need to document the different exceptions that should be expected
