How to Call Modules from Workflows

Modules are reusable components that contain specific workflow logic. They function as sub-workflows that you can call from a main workflow to execute a defined set of tasks. Integrating modules allows you to avoid duplicating configuration for common tasks and keeps your main workflows organized.

Modules cannot be executed independently; they must be called within a main workflow.

Add a Module to a Workflow​

To use a module, you must add it to your workflow canvas and configure the necessary inputs.

  1. Open the Workflow where you want to call the module.
  2. In the workflow editor, add a new node to the canvas. Select the Workflow node type. This node is specifically designed to execute other workflow modules.
  3. Click the node to open the configuration panel.
  4. Select the specific module you wish to execute, or manually enter the Workflow ID.
  5. Save your workflow configuration.

Workflow Inputs

If the module has inputs defined, the configuration panel displays the required fields. Enter the values or variables for each input field to pass the required data into the module and click Update.
