Techniques are described for workflow management, including automatically deriving characteristics of a user task node in a workflow based on an analysis of other workflow elements such as conditional sequence connectors. In some implementations, elements of a workflow presented in the modeler user interface of a workflow management platform are analyzed, and element(s) of the workflow are automatically and dynamically modified based on the analysis. For example, a workflow may include a first user task that is connected to subsequent node(s) in the workflow, such as other user task(s) downstream from the first user task. The first user task may be connected to each subsequent node by a conditional sequence connector. The condition information for each connector can be extracted from the workflow information and used to automatically modify the first user task to include decision branches for each element of condition information extracted from a respective connector.
