Build a reusable AI workflow

A workflow is useful when you repeat the same process and want consistent steps. Design the process before optimizing individual prompts.

Plan before building

  • Define the input a user provides and the final output they expect.
  • Split the task where each step has one clear responsibility.
  • Identify steps that can run independently and steps that depend on earlier results.
  • Add a human review point before irreversible or high-impact actions.

Create the workflow

  1. Open AI Workflow

    Start a new workflow from the workflow page.

  2. Describe the objective

    State the repeatable job, required inputs, and success criteria.

  3. Configure each step

    Give every step a focused instruction and pass only the information it needs.

  4. Test with a realistic example

    Run the workflow using representative input and inspect intermediate results, not only the final answer.

  5. Refine and reuse

    Clarify weak steps, test edge cases, and keep the workflow ready for the next run.

Keep workflows dependable

Use explicit output formats between steps and avoid asking one step to do several unrelated jobs. When source freshness matters, include a search or research step and preserve citations through the final output.
