Overview

Create a new workflow in draft status. No nodes or edges are created — the canvas starts empty. Typical flow:
  1. createWorkflow with a name
  2. updateWorkflowNodes with the full graph (at minimum: one signal_trigger node and one action node)
  3. activateWorkflow to flip status to active

​
AI agent notes

Draft state is permissive. You can save partial graphs in draft — the validation only kicks in when activateWorkflow is called.Related: List workflows, Update a workflow, Delete a workflow.
