Flow Construction

flow8 provides a robust foundation for managing and running automations efficiently. Automations are constructed in a sequence of steps to ensure a streamlined workflow. The key steps are:

  1. Design the Workflow Define the overarching workflow of the automation pipeline. This involves determining the sequence of tasks, dependencies, and triggers necessary for execution.

  2. Develop Missing Components and Streamlets Implement any missing custom components or reusable streamlets required in the workflow. These are modular units of work that encapsulate specific actions or logic.

  3. Assemble the Flow Configure and assemble the complete flow based on the workflow design, integrating all developed components and streamlets.

  4. Run End-to-End (E2E) Test Execute comprehensive E2E tests to validate the correctness and performance of the assembled flow.

  5. Observe and Monitor Continuously monitor the automation to ensure smooth execution and identify potential issues.
