This particular tutorial is created using SharePoint Workflow Foundation platform (SharePoint 2010 Workflows) , but it will work in a similar way with SharePoint Workflow Manager platform (SharePoint 2013 Workflows). That includes all available SharePoint versions: 2019, 2016, 2013, 2010 and SharePoint Online.
