Abstract
User actions for configuring a computing environment may be recorded and converted to a workflow definition. A translation layer may be associated with the workflow definition and invoked to perform actions described by the workflow by utilizing one or more application programming interfaces. The translation layer may adapt to application programming interface idiosyncrasies by translating state transitions, including asynchronous to synchronous state transitions and synchronous to asynchronous state transitions.
