There is service application\option in SharePoint 2013 where you can see workflow 2013.
You can see workflow 2013 in designer which comes with Workflow manager 2013. Also you have to configure workflow manager 2013 as per below:

Configuring Workflow Manager for SharePoint 2013

I have gone through the configurations of Workflow and SharePoint to use the new Workflow Manager 1.0 several times now, and keep getting the below errors.
My environment is set up with 2 servers, 1 SP Web Applicatin and 1 SQL. Workflow is installed on the SQL server. These errors are from the SQL Server.

The error messages suggested to me that the issue was being caused by our proxy server. I have removed the proxy server from the equation by removing the proxy settings.
I then also tried to navigate to the url in the error messages. When i navigate to https://srv22.domain.com:9355/WorkflowDefaultNamespace/$STS/Windows/ i get a 400 Bad Request. When i change the address to https://srv22.domain.com:9355/WorkflowDefaultNamespace/$sts/Windows/
($sts in Lower Case rather than Upper Case) i get a response from the Workflow server.
I have searched high and low for a solution to this, and cannot find one, can anybody shed any light on the situation.
Thanks in advance
Paul

Hi Paul,
Here is a similar post with bad gateway error related to proxy and gateway settings, you can take a look.

Errors when installing Workflow Manager

I am trying to install WF Manager, but with no success.
On the same machine, I have installed SQL Server 2014, SharePoint 2013 with SP1 and WF Manager.
I installed WF manager (account that runs WF manager is sp farm admin) and registered with command
Register-SPWorkflowService -SPSite "http://dev/" -WorkflowHostUri "http://localhost:12291" -AllowOAuthHttp
In Central Admin, when I click on "Workflow Service Application Proxy ", I get message that WF is connected. Backend service is running. In SP Designer, I can create 2013 Workflow and publish it, but that WF does not work, it break instantly.
In SP logs, I get this error when I try to activate feature that contains workflow (solution that contains WF created in Visual Studio):
http://radioaddictsanonymous.com/view/635399286724222582163282/error-while-deploying-sp2013-workflow-from-vs2012-nullreferenceexception
So, I deleted WF manager and service bus and reinstalled it, but with no luck. Now backedn service is not working, and I can't start it, getting this error:
"The Workflow Manager Backend service could not be started A system error has occurred System error 1067 has occurred"
In Event Viewer I have this error:

I have tried to reinstall everything couple of times, but it doesn't work. I think that I am not deleting everything related to workflow before reinstallation. How can I unregister already registered WF service and reinstall everything correctly??

Pairing Workflow Manager with SharePoint Online

Hi everyone,
I found
this post by Adis Jugo and I wondered if this is (or maybe is planned to be) supported in SharePoint Online?
I created custom code activity, used it in workflow (sharepoint app) and it works on SP 2013. What I want to do, if it is possible ofc, is to use the same sharepoint app in SP Online..
This is the tutorial which was followed to create Workflow CodeActivity..

Hi Mahesh,
According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you register workflow manager for SharePoint 2013.
Firstly, please check whether you install SharePoint Developer tools Preview for VS 12. If yes, please uninstall it , and restart the server, then run Register-SPWorkflowService.
If this issue still exists, go to Central Administration, and check whether the web application is connected to Workflow service application proxy.
Here are some similar posts for you to take a look at:

Getting Error while Installing Workflow Manager 1.0 on Sharepoint 2013 On-Prem server

I am trying to install Workflow Manager 1.0 on our SharePoint Server 2013 which is On-Prem installation. The SharePoint Server 2013 is functioning correctly. During the installation of Workflow Manager 1.0 on the same SharePoint 2013 server, I receive the
following message: "Port number 9355 specified for HTTPS Port is blocked" I have checked our firewall Inbound rules and this port is not blocked.
Any reason why this could be happening or did I miss anything?
Thanks Snehal H.Rana SharePoint Consultant

I am happy to inform you that I was able to resolve this error. I configured this on different ports other than 9355. We need to modify 2 files called "ClusterManifest.1.0.xml" and "ClusterManifest.current.xml" in c:\Program
Files\Windows Fabric\Bin. They were pointing to older FQDN under following node:
<NodeList>
<Node NodeName="yourserverfqdn" IPAddressOrFQDN="yourserverfqdn" IsSeedNode="true" NodeTypeRef="DefaultNodeType" />
</NodeList>
These files won't let you edit directly in notepad so you will need to make a copy of these files (just in case). Open up the notepad as "Run As Administrator". Drag these files to the notepad. After you are done editing, save these as original
names but make sure that the extension is .xml
You will also need to do IISReset
That did the trick for me.
Thanks Snehal H.Rana SharePoint Consultant

Can you install Workflow Manager 1.0 on Central Admin App Server Machine in 3-tier SharePoint Farm?

Hi,
I have just realised when looking at doing a Workflow that 2013 Workflows not available (you need to install Workflow Manager Farm). I understand why from a tenant installation perspective, but we are on-premise.
Can someone tell me if I can install Workflow Manager 1.0 (seen you have to now install WM 1.0 Refresh version) on the Central Admin App Server Machine in a 3 tier SharePoint farm. 3 WFE, 4 APP Servers, 1 DB Server and 1 DB Analysis Services Server.
I did test on a test farm 1WFE, 1 APP Server (with CA) and 1 Database Server. We are getting issues with the WFE Server having issues booting up or losing connection - possibly faulty network card. This may in no way be related to the install,
but just in case.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
John.

Yes, you can install WFM on any server in a SharePoint farm.

Do i need another Virtual machine rather than sharepoint server to install workflow manager ?

Hi ,
I have installed sharepoint 2013 on a single server with a built-in-database. And i have installed OWA in another virtual machine. Now i am trying to create a workflow. I have downloaded and installed sharepoint designer and workflow
manager in the sharepoint 2013 itself. Do i need to install workflow manager in another server and make it to communicate with sharepoint server ? And how to email-id in workflow when i tried in sharepoint designer we have select the user. How to allocate
e-mail id for users ?

Creating new VM is choice of your architecture. Workflow Manager only requires below.
Workflow Manager 1.0. Email ID will be automatically picked from the participants from AD.
.NET Framework 4 Platform Update 3 or .NET Framework 4.5
Service Bus 1.0
Workflow Client 1.0
PowerShell 3.0
The following additional requirements must be met before you can run Configuration Wizard to configure Workflow:
Instance of SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1, SQL Server Express 2008 R2 SP1, or SQL Server 2012.
TCP/IP connections or named pipes must be configured in SQL Server.
Windows Firewall must be enabled.
Ports 12290 and 12291 must be available.

What is the windows server 2013 license version than I need to install workflow manager 1.0

what is the windows server 2013 license version than I need to install workflow manager 1.0?
enterprise or standard? can I install it on datacenter?
please provide me with the reference.
thanks

Workflow Manager will work with either SharePoint Enterprise or Standard. It doesn't work well with Foundations since it depends on User Profiles to pass user identity to the workflow. And yes you can install it on Windows Server datacenter edition.
Here are the supported platforms for installation
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj193487(v=azure.10).aspx
This article talks about integration with SharePoint and states that Foundation is not supported, but it doesn't differentiate between the Server editions, so any edition will do.

Workflow Manager and SharePoint Designer publishing error

Hello all,
I'm hoping for some help in fixing this issue.
I've been trying to publish a workflow using SharePoint Designer only to find that I get this error:
"Errors were found when compilint the workflow. The workflow files were saved but cannot be run."
After clicking on the advanced button it shows error:
System.InvalidOperationException: Operation failed with error Microsoft.Workflow.Client.WorkflowCommunicationException: The request was aborted: The request was canceled. Client ActivityId : 6a78ad9c-6ac6-f03a-0680-003bd46e5f68. ---> System.Net.WebException:
The request was aborted: The request was canceled. ---> Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: The requested operation requires an HTTPS (SSL) channel.
Ensure that the target endpoint address supports SSL and try again.
Target endpoint address:
Note: the message cuts off after the "Target endpoint address".
Looking on the SharePoint server, when I try and pull up the Workflow Manager site (https://localhost:12290/) I get this response:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<Code>AuthorizationError</Code><message><Message>The caller does not have the necessary
permissions required for this operation. Permissions granted: None. Required permissions: ReadScope.</Message></message></Error>
I am running this farm with HTTPS and I have registered the SP workflow service with the appropriate application. I have also set the Workflow Management Site bindings in IIS to utilize the same certificate as the default SharePoint site.
At this point, I don't know if the error that I received from Designer is related to the Site error, although I do know that I also have a Development environment that is able to publish workflows just fine. However, this farm uses HTTP rather than HTTPS
so I can only assume that the differences are what's causing the issue. I would appreciate any help that anyone can offer. Thanks!

Hi,
As I understand, you encountered the issue when you published a workflow on SharePoint 2013 workflow platform.
I wonder does it work well before when using 2013 workflow platform? If it works before, did you install any updates or change the configuration to the workflow related settings?
If this is the first time after you installed workflow manager 2013, then I’d recommend you try re-registering workflow service per the link below and post the result:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj658588(v=office.15).aspx
From the message you accessed workflow host uri, please make sure the account to wfsetup and wfservice account are both in wfadmins group.

Best Practice on installing Workflow Manager on a separate box

Hi,
We are installing Workflow Manager 1.0 to work with our SP2013 farm, which is fairly simple.
However we anticipate a significant amount of workflow work in the future.
Could you please share your thoughts/experience/lessons learnt on Having WF Manager on a separate box compared to having it on the same box as SP2013 Front end server in terms of
1. Scalability
2. Stability
3. Ease of Installation/Management
etc
Thanks a lot.

Unable to register workflow service in SharePoint 2013

I am trying to enable Workflow 2013 feature in SharePoint Designer 2013 and for that I installed Workflow Manager.
I am at the last step where you register workflow service using the following command but I am getting error.

What do I do now?

Hi Sridhar,
I have tried Register-SPWorkflowService command(below) with the "-Force" parameter but now i am getting below error. I have

How to reassign a workflow task in SharePoint 2013?

How can you reassign a workflow task in SharePoint 2013 (online)? I found some discussions online about how to do this, but I don't see this option using SP2013. Note the "Reassignment" checkbox from this screenshot (which I think is from 2010).

Do we require to install microsoft excel in sharepoint 2013 server?. if require to use sharepoint 2013 excel services.
In our organisation, development team is asking to install office 2013 in SharePoint 2013 server to use different services, where as architecture team not allowing for the same. I need to provide proper justification for installing office 2013 in SharePoint
2013 server. Please provide me the correct solution for the same.

No, you do not need to install Office on the SharePoint server to utilize the Excel Services. Office should not be installed on the SharePoint server.
Do they need Office Web Apps? Are they looking to have the capability to edit documents in the browser maybe? Or have document preview on search? Office Web Apps would be required for this, but this is a different product than Office.

How to migrate a SharePoint 2010 workflow to an SharePoint 2013 environment

Dear guys,
I have a SharePoint 2010 environment with a workflow. Now I would like to migrate this workflow in the SharePoint 2013 environment? How could this be done?
I tried it via Visio, but it is not working...
Best regards
Matthias

All SharePoint designer 2010 based workflows will be upgraded AS IS and can be enhanced using SPD 2013 but enhancement can be done in SP2010 mode only (using SP2010 features), no new SP2013 features can be used in SPD 2010 workflows. Microsoft has provided
a workaround to trigger SP2010 workflows with-in SPD2013 workflows using workflow interop for SharePoint 2013.
