Run a workflow - e6data Docs

Run it

On the workflow detail page, choose the version and select Run.
Complete the input dialog. See Which inputs are required.
Add attachments if the workflow accepts them.
Start the run.
Follow the step timeline, tool activity, outputs, human-input requests, errors and artifacts.
Stop the run if needed.
Review or download the final artifacts.

Direct runs are detached from your browser, so they keep going if you navigate away. The workflow version is recorded when the run starts.

Which inputs are required

Input definition	In the run dialog
Has a non-null default	Prefilled and optional
`required: false`	Optional
A bare type, no default, or a `null` default	Mandatory

Large results

Large intermediate results move between steps as references (FileRef, S3PathRef or ArtifactRef) instead of being copied into every step’s context.

Other ways to start a run

From chat, with /workflow. See Use chat.
On a schedule. See Schedule a workflow.
From an external event. See Start workflows from webhooks.
