About Relay Workflow Automation MCP Server
Connect Relay to any AI agent and automate your business workflows -- list available workflows, trigger executions with dynamic inputs, monitor run statuses, and cancel active runs through natural conversation.
LlamaIndex agents combine Relay Workflow Automation tool responses with indexed documents for comprehensive, grounded answers. Connect 6 tools through Vinkius and query live data alongside vector stores and SQL databases in a single turn. ideal for hybrid search, data enrichment, and analytical workflows.
What you can do
- Workflow Discovery -- List and inspect all configured workflows in your account
- Trigger Execution -- Start workflows with custom input variables
- Run Monitoring -- Check progress and results of active and completed runs
- Run Management -- Cancel in-progress workflows when needed
The Relay Workflow Automation MCP Server exposes 6 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to LlamaIndex in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
