When you enable the Call Workflow tool for your Assistant, it gains the ability to intelligently determine when to execute Workflows based on user requests. Your Assistant knows which Workflows it has access to and their required inputs, so it can decide when a Workflow is needed and will converse back and forth with users until it receives all the necessary information to run the Workflow.

Currently, this feature only supports manual trigger Workflows and does not support Workflows with file uploads.

  1. Navigate to the Assistants page: Click on the "Assistants" tab in the left sidebar to access your list of Assistants.

  2. Select the Assistant: Choose the Assistant you want to configure for web search by clicking on its card or opening the ellipses (more options) menu and selecting "Edit."

  3. Access the Tools tab: In the Assistant's settings, navigate to the "Tools" tab to configure and manage tools available to your Assistant.

  4. Add Workflows: Click the "Add" button on the Workflows option to enable this tool for your Assistant.

  5. Search and select Workflows: A pop-up modal will appear. Click "+ Add Workflow" to begin selecting Workflows. Search for and select the Workflow you'd like your Assistant to be able to run.

    You can add multiple Workflows by clicking "+ Add Workflow" for each one you want to include.

  6. Complete the tool addition: Once you've finished adding all your desired Workflows, click "Add Tool" to confirm your selections.

  7. Save changes: Click "Save" to apply the Call Workflow tool to your Assistant.

  8. Chat with your Assistant: Start a conversation with your Assistant. The AI will automatically determine when it needs to execute a Workflow to provide you with the results you're looking for.


Once Call Workflow is enabled, your Assistant will intelligently decide when to run Workflows during conversations. This ensures you receive automated task execution and streamlined processes directly within your chat interface.

It's recommended to add clear descriptions to your Workflows so the AI can better understand when to intelligently call them during conversations.
