Launching workflows

After you've created a workflow, how you launch it depends on the launch type you assigned to it when creating it.

Launching a workflow through the Inkit web app

To launch a workflow that you created with a launch type of Fillable Form, do the following:

1. In the Inkit web app, select Flows in the left sidebar, then click on the ... menu button beside the workflow you want to invoke and click Invoke.

   

2. In the Launch Flow page, enter Your Data for each Variable in the workflow's templates.

   Then click Launch Flow.

   

Launching a workflow through the Inkit API

To launching a workflow that you created with a launch type of API, call the Launch Workflow endpoint, specifying the following:

• The ID of the workflow
• The execution name of the workflow, which you can use to track it
• The merge parameters for the workflow

For example:

curl --request POST \
     --url https://api.inkit.com/v1/invoke \
     --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
     --header 'X-Inkit-API-Token: ENTER YOUR API KEY' \
     --header 'accept: application/json' \
     --data '
{
  "flow_id": "ENTER YOUR FLOW ID",
  "name":"test",
  "merge_parameters": {
    "Name": "John"
  }
}
'
