How to run and test Langflow flows with your AI

Connect your AI client to Langflow to trigger complex agent sequences through chat. Once linked, your agent handles the orchestration while you provide the instructions.

Short answer

How can I trigger Langflow workflows with my AI?

You send a command to your AI client, which then calls the specific Langflow sequence via the Connector. This lets you run multi-step agent logic directly from your chat interface. You'll see the results of these operations immediately.

The outcomes.

Where your commands lead.

Your agent maps your text to specific actions within your Langflow environment.

EXECUTION

Active flow runs

The AI triggers a specific multi-agent sequence. You get the final output of the process in your chat.

AUTOMATION

Webhook triggers

The agent sends a signal to an external endpoint. This starts processes in other apps based on your input.

ORCHESTRATION

Workflow management

The AI runs broader workflows that coordinate multiple tools. You receive the finished result once the chain completes.

HUMAN

Manual review needed

If a flow needs a parameter you didn't provide, the AI will ask you for it before it runs anything.

The workflow

What your AI does when <the thing arrives>.

The AI acts as the bridge between your chat and the Langflow engine.

  1. Identify the flow

    Your AI client analyzes your message to find the right Langflow sequence to start.

    run_flow

  2. Run the sequence

    The agent starts the requested multi-agent logic by calling the flow.

    run_flowrun_workflow

  3. Trigger external events

    If you ask to notify another service, the AI sends a request to your endpoint.

    trigger_webhook

  4. Return the output

    The AI gathers the data from the completed process and shows it to you.

    run_workflow
