Creating Agent Flows

Learn how to create efficient and effective workflow flows for your agents.

Flow Creation Process

1

Plan Your Flow

Define the flow’s purpose and requirements:
  • Identify triggers
  • Map out decision points
  • Define expected outcomes
2

Create Flow Structure

Build the basic flow structure:
  • Set up triggers
  • Add action nodes
  • Configure conditions
3

Configure Actions

Set up specific actions:
  • Tool integrations
  • API calls
  • Response templates
4

Test and Deploy

Validate and launch your flow:
  • Test scenarios
  • Debug issues
  • Deploy to production

Flow Components

{
  "trigger": {
    "type": "message",
    "conditions": {
      "contains": ["help", "support"],
      "intent": "assistance"
    }
  }
}
{
  "action": {
    "type": "api_call",
    "endpoint": "/api/tickets",
    "method": "POST",
    "parameters": {
      "title": "${message.subject}",
      "description": "${message.content}"
    }
  }
}
{
  "condition": {
    "if": "${user.type} === 'premium'",
    "then": "priority_support",
    "else": "standard_support"
  }
}

    }
  ]
}
