Reporting on Workflows in SharePoint - sharepoint

Is there a way to create a report in SharePoint where i can view all my current workflows and the status of each workflow?
Edit: I need to be able to have a List or something where i can view all my Workflows with the status and so on in my SharePoint site.

There is some basic reporting built in. Check out this article;

You can also get some overview of custom workflows available using this tool in Codeplex;

Customize Issue Tracker list form with powerapps

I have an issue tracker list in SharePoint 2013 environment. In the course of migration to SharePoint online, we are successfully able to migrate Issue Tracker list. Now the goal is to customize the list form using powerapps. In list setting -> form settings, the option to customize the form is not available. If we plan to create an independent powerapps form this list as a data source, the issue tracker list doesn't appear to be available there. Is it possible to customize an issue tracker list's form using powerapps or creating a powerapps form on the top of legacy issue tracker list in SharePoint online? or are there any other work arounds?
your suggestions are welcomed.
Thanks.
Power Apps customized forms are only supported in modern experience currently.
You cannot customize the list forms for classic experience list forms.

SharePoint Designer 2013 - few actions are missing for workflow

I want to query the list to get some information of particular ID but some actions are missing in SharePoint Designer 2013. I want following actions in SharePoint Designer.
But what it actually looks here in my screen :
I could not see Dictionary and HTTP actions in designer. I am new to this. Let me know if you have any suggestion to display these actions here.
Thank you in advance.
The workflow you created is a SharePoint 2010 workflow without OOB actions like call HTTP web service and etc. What you need is a SharePoint 2013 workflow. You have to set Platform Type to SharePoint 2013 Workflow when creating a new workflow.
If there is no SharePoint 2013 Workflow option under the dropdown menu, you have to configure workflow manager to get it. Reference: Install and configure workflow for SharePoint Server.

Is there a way to create a work "handoff" flow in SharePoint? Where users complete a task and sends it to other users to complete additional tasks?

All,
I'm new to SharePoint, and I was wondering if there was a way to have a group of users complete a task (perhaps a form that needs answered), and then have that form, or the answers given in that form, be sent to another group of users to look into and follow-up on? Perhaps it could be moved to a specific folder?
Google hasn't turned up much of anything in the way of clear answers.
The mechanism you are mentioning is like a SharePoint Approval workflow or an approval flow.
Just like teylyn said, you can choose SharePoint Designer workflow or Power automate depends on the version of SharePoint you are using.
How to determine the SharePoint version I am using.
And SharePoint has its own built-in approval workflow template for directly use. It is a bit old but easy to configure and ready to be used.
An example for SharePoint designer 2013 platform approval workflow here.
2010 Platform approval workflow
One thing just for your notice, there are two different types of workflows, 2010 platform workflow and 2013 platform workflow. You can create a 2010 platform as long as you installed SharePoint Designer. However it is needed to install and configure workflow manager to use 2013 platform workflow.
Flow tutorial here.
Hope to be any help.
In SharePoint Online, you can use Power Automate to create business logic workflows, using fields in a SharePoint list that store the current status of a task and information like next reviewer, etc. The Power Automate flow can be either triggered by a button in the form (in which case you would want to design the form with PowerApps) or whenever the item in the SharePoint list is modified.
In SharePoint on premises you can create SharePoint Designer workflows to achieve the same thing.

Sharepoint 2010 designer Approval workflow for document

I am having below requirement using sharepoint 2010 designer workflow.
Once anyone reject the request the workflow must be assigned back to User who is initiating.
Please guide me how can i achive this. I am new to sharepoint workflows.
OOB SharePoint 2010 designer workflow can't achieve this, you would consider to use third-party solution/product for this.
Or develop your state machine workflow.

Is it possible to embed a SharePoint Calendar into a non-SharePoint website?

I am trying to find out if there is a way to put a SharePoint Calendar into a normal web-page that will update whenever the SharePoint Calendar is updated. Does anyone know if it's possible?
-Thanks
SharePoint has some standard web services which you can use to access data stored in the SharePoint site.
Look here for an example of how to use these with at calendar
But be aware that the standard SharePoint web services will not allow you to expand recurring events.
