Workflow View

The Workflow view is Wardian's canvas for building and testing automations.

Use this page as a quick manual for the view itself. For the full workflow reference, start at Workflows.

What You Can Do Here

  • open an existing workflow
  • create a new workflow
  • add nodes from the block library
  • wire nodes together on the canvas
  • edit node settings
  • save changes
  • launch the workflow according to its trigger type

Main Areas

  • Top action bar: select, save, reset, duplicate, delete, or run the active workflow
  • Canvas: place and connect nodes
  • Block Library: add new blocks to the workflow
  • Node Settings drawer: edit the selected node
  • Variable Assistant: inspect upstream values and interpolation paths

Running From This View

The Run Workflow button saves the current canvas first, then launches based on the workflow's trigger:

  • manual workflows run immediately
  • scheduled workflows create scheduled task instances
  • file-watcher or webhook-style workflows activate as live listeners

If the workflow needs agent assignment or manual input parameters, Wardian opens the run modal before launching.
