Cannot find few custom workflows in the list when try to apply for DAM assets.

I am trying to add custom workflow to DAM asset but cannot find workflow in the list of workflows. When I try to apply workflow for a page I see all the workflows listed. This issue is only when I try to apply workflow form DAM Assets.

Below is the screenshot when I try to activate page which shows DAM asset request publish and unpublish workflows.

Below screenshot shows the list of workflows when I try to apply for assets I don't see those workflows in the list.

The issue is resolved by deleting tags under workflow jcr:content. There are two tags workflow:wcm and workflow:dam .

Applying workflows to digital assets is the same as for website pages. For a complete guide on how to create and use workflows in AEM, see Starting Workflows.

Do you see any error on browser or error.log?

Thanks for the document.

I don't see few custom workflows in the drop-down listed to even apply for DAM Assets. But I see the same workflows in workflow console and also  I see them in the dropdown when I try to apply workflow for pages.

Check model.xml file of you custome workflow and validate metaData tag.

Set jcr:primaryType to "nt:unstructure" in oder to avaialable in drop down list

<metaData

            jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"/>
