Test, validate, and publish a workflow

Save the draft

Saving preserves the design but does not make it active. Changes to a published workflow remain a draft until the next publication.

Run validation

Studio checks one Start and at least one End, valid connections without cycles, required node settings, authorized tools, active agents in the same workspace, published subworkflows without self-references, and execution limits.

Resolve the errors associated with each node before continuing.

Simulate representative inputs

In Test, enter JSON data equivalent to real input. Cover the primary path, alternative branches, missing data, and predictable failures.

Begin with mocked tools. If a simulation pauses for approval, make a decision in the simulator and inspect how it resumes.

Review the trace

Confirm step order, branches, output, and duration. A completed simulation only proves that the path ended; also review the functional result.

Publish a version

Select Publish after validation and tests succeed. The published version is identified in later runs.

Then test through the real activation mode. Make corrections in a new draft and repeat validation before publishing another version.
