AI Workflow Generation
Hyphen can generate workflow drafts from natural-language descriptions.
Beta recommendation for API-only tenants
If you want the simplest supported public API path, use
POST /process-studio/processes/create-from-prompt.That one-shot Process Studio endpoint creates the process, compiles the prompt, and publishes by default. This page covers the lower-level draft-generation path for teams that want raw workflow DSL and explicit control over compose and publish.
This is an advanced authoring path that uses Hyphen's AI compiler to produce workflow drafting artifacts such as:
- workflow definitions
- actions to register
- custom tables to create
- supporting dependency notes
When to use it
This lower-level path is a good fit when you want to:
- bootstrap a first draft quickly
- experiment with workflow structure before hand-tuning it
- work closer to the runtime and compiler layers
What to expect
Prompt-to-workflow generation is powerful, but it still benefits from review.
Before deploying a generated workflow, you should verify:
- the step sequence
- branching conditions
- tool and action references
- context paths
- table and storage assumptions
Recommended usage
For many teams, the best progression is:
- start with a business description
- generate a draft
- review and refine the output
- publish once the structure matches the intended process
If you want a more guided experience, start with Process Studio instead.
