Perplexity

Run production workflows headlessly

You can create a full pipeline using `create_workflow` from a shell script. If the process fails during CI/CD, you don't need to manually intervene; simply use `retry_execution` in your job runner.

Inspect workflow status and logs for monitoring

To see if a scheduled task ran correctly, check the overall health with `check_workload_status`. For deep debugging of an old run, use `list_logs` to pull all output. You can also get details on what the process was supposed to do using `get_workflow`.

Manage and list available automation processes

Before writing a script, verify what's possible by running `list_workflows`. Need to stop an old, forgotten job? Use `disable_workflow`. You can also check the current connection setup using `get_connection`.
