AI Workflow Builder: Your Personal Automation Expert ๐ค
Our AI Workflow Builder helps you create workflows by describing them in plain English. To use it effectively, you need to understand what it can and cannot do.
โก Critical Requirements for Using the AI:
- For our pre-built integrations (like SendGrid), specify them by name - it may help if you mention that it is a
pre-built node
- For external APIs, you MUST provide their documentation URL
- Always tell the AI exactly which service to use for each task, otherwise it will guess which one you want
What the AI Can Do ๐ฏ
Pre-built Integrations
- Use any of our existing integrations when you mention them by name and that they're a
pre-built node
(otherwise it may guess) - Configure standard settings and connections between integrations
- Example: "Use SendGrid pre-built node to send welcome emails"
External APIs
- Connect to your custom APIs when you provide documentation URLs
- Set up basic API configurations based on the documentation
- Example: "Connect to my order API (docs at api.company.com/docs), create an order for
xyz
and send data to Slack"
What the AI Cannot Do ๐ซ
- Create integrations for external APIs without documentation URLs
- Guess which specific service you want to use
- Access private APIs without proper documentation
- Set up authentication automatically (you'll need to provide credentials)
Writing Effective Prompts โ๏ธ
Good Prompts (These Will Work)
โ "Create a workflow using SendGrid to send welcome emails using an LLM to generate the email content about the product"
โ "Use my company's API (docs at api.mycompany.com/docs) to fetch orders and send them to Slack"
โ "Or something more complex like
1. Scrape https://www.firecrawl.dev/pricing using Firecrawl
2. Use LLM to:
- Generate a script advertising Firecrawl
- Analyze and suggest best pricing tier for startups
3. Generate video using RunwayML with the advertising script
4. Send email to bilbobaggins@gmail.com containing:
- Pricing recommendation for startups
- Generated video url
Bad Prompts (These Won't Work)
โ "Send emails when users sign up" (Which email service?)
โ "Connect to my company's API" (Where's the documentation URL?)
โ "Process payments" (Which payment service?)
Getting Started ๐
-
Prepare Your Requirements
- List the specific services you want to use
- Gather documentation URLs for any external APIs
- Have your API credentials ready
-
Write Your Prompt
"Create a workflow that: - Uses SendGrid for sending welcome emails - Connects to our order API (docs at api.orders.com/docs) - Uses Slack for notifications"
-
Review & Configure
- Review the generated workflow
- Add your API keys and credentials
- Test the workflow with sample data
๐ Remember: The more specific you are about which services to use and where to find API documentation, the better the AI can help you build your workflow.
