1

Defining your objective

Creating Workflows starts with a simple first step; clearly defining the objective of your Workflow, understanding the inputs it will handle, and the outputs it is expected to produce. This helps in determining the necessary logic and components required. Consider mapping out the sequence of operations, which will guide the logical flow of your Workflow, making it easier to identify the specific Blocks needed.

Data & integrations

Next, ensure you have all required data sources and third-party service integrations accessible, as these will be crucial for your Workflow’s functionality. At the very least, we’d suggest setting up a Collection so that you can augment LLM queries with your specific data. If you’re going to production, and you want to make requests to external services, consider setting up Environment Variables.

Tactical

You can create a Workflow in the Scout UI by clicking “Workflows” in the Scout dashboard nav, then clicking ”+ New”.

Workflows can be given names, icons (an avatar image) and a description.
