# Data Flow

Data Flow is where you automate the whole data import, processing and export. This automation streamlines the movement and manipulation of both [Resources](/acho-studio/resources.md) and [Data Prep (Projects)](/acho-studio/data-prep-projects.md)

{% hint style="info" %}
In order to create **Data Flow** you need to have at least one [Data Prep (Projects)](/acho-studio/data-prep-projects.md) in your organization.
{% endhint %}

### **Create a Workflow from Project**

Next, you'll create a workflow for the project following these steps:

1. Go to Workflow page.
2. Click **Create Workflow.**
3. Select the project from the project list.
4. Click **Create** to create a new Workflow

After workflow is created, you can add destination and [Export data](/acho-studio/data-flow/export-data.md). In addition, you can [Set up Data Sync](/acho-studio/set-up.md) to projects and exportation.&#x20;
