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 v4 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 the compose/publish stages.

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

For many teams, the best progression is:

  1. start with a business description
  2. generate a draft
  3. review and refine the output
  4. publish once the structure matches the intended process

If you want a more guided experience, start with Process Studio instead.
