Design Workflow Agents

In this module, you’ll learn how to design Workflow agents in Opal to automate complex, multi-step processes. Opal allows you to connect several specialized agents into a single, streamlined workflow with logic and triggers to execute tasks in sequence or in parallel without human intervention.

By the end of this module, you’ll be able to:

• Describe the structure and components of workflow agents and apply best practices for designing efficient workflows.
• Create workflow agents, configure their sequence of tasks, and export or import workflows as JSON files.
• Identify the different types of triggers in Opal, configure them appropriately, and understand their use cases within workflows.

Workflow agents overview

Opal's no-code workflow builder enables you to orchestrate your agents by chaining them together to complete complex tasks. In addition to arranging specialized agents in a sequence, you can invoke them using triggers and logic, giving your agents more power to act autonomously on your behalf.

Create a Workflow Agent

You can create workflow agents and automate multi-step processes directly within the Optimizely Opal platform.

The following walkthrough will guide you step by step on how to create a workflow agent in Opal.

Workflow Triggers

Triggers are an integral part of a workflow, as they determine when the process starts. They ensure that actions are executed automatically based on specific events or conditions.
