Workflows
Workflows let you automate multi-step work with AI. Instead of doing the same sequence of steps by hand every time, you design the flow once on a visual canvas and let Arketic run it — on demand, on a schedule, from a webhook, or straight from a chat.
:::info Admin feature Workflows is available to Admins. If you don't see it in the sidebar, ask your administrator. :::
What You Can Build
- AI steps — ask an AI agent to draft, classify, summarize, or decide.
- Logic — conditions, loops, and parallel branches.
- Data — read and write your own tables, call external APIs, work with variables.
- Integrations — connect services like Slack, Gmail, Notion, Google Sheets, and more.
- Arketic actions — search your knowledge base, create tasks, start a Blueprint, send notifications.
The Workflows Page
Open Workflows from the sidebar. The page has five tabs:
| Tab | What It's For |
|---|---|
| Workflows | Your list of workflows |
| Tables | Reusable data tables your workflows can read and write |
| Schedules | Run workflows automatically on a recurring schedule |
| Connections | Accounts and API keys your workflow steps use |
| Logs | History of every run, with step-by-step detail |
Creating a Workflow
- Click New workflow at the top right
- Give it a name (e.g. "Weekly report generator")
- Click Create
You're taken straight into the editor, where you build the flow. See Creating Workflows.
Workflow Cards
Each workflow appears as a card showing:
- Name and a short description
- A status badge:
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Draft | Being built, not running yet |
| Active | In use |
| Paused | Temporarily stopped |
| Archived | Kept for reference, not running |
- Last updated time (e.g. "5m ago")
- Run count — how many times it has run
Opening and Deleting
- Open — click anywhere on a card to open it in the editor
- Delete — hover the card and click the trash icon, then confirm
Deleting a workflow cannot be undone. Its runs and schedules stop.
Finding a Workflow
Use the search box on the Workflows tab to filter by name. As your library grows, clear, descriptive names make workflows easy to find.
