Workflow Assistant
The Workflow Assistant is an AI-powered chatbot embedded in the automation builder. It helps you create workflows through natural conversation, understand existing flows, and make changes without manually configuring each component.The Workflow Assistant is available directly in the automation canvas toolbar. Click the AI Assistant button to open it.
Modes
The assistant operates in two modes, each designed for a different task.Creation Mode
Use Creation Mode to build and modify workflows through conversation. What you can do:- Describe what you want to build in plain language
- Add, remove, and reconfigure components
- Set parameters and connections between nodes
- Iterate on your workflow step by step
Assistant Mode
Use Assistant Mode to understand an existing workflow without modifying it. This is read-only. What you can do:- Ask what the workflow does
- Get explanations of individual components
- Understand how data flows between nodes
- Ask about the trigger logic and conditions
- “What does this workflow do?”
- “How is the email body configured?”
- “What triggers this automation?”
- “Explain the condition on the if-else node”
Switching Modes
The chatbot provides two tabs at the top of the chat panel:- Create (or Edit if the canvas already has nodes) for building and modifying
- Ask for understanding and exploring
Chat History
The assistant remembers your recent conversations so you can pick up where you left off.How It Works
- History is saved per user and per flow — you only see your own conversations for the current automation
- The 3 most recent conversations are shown when the chat is empty
- Click a conversation to expand and see the message history
- Creation and Assistant mode histories are kept separate
Viewing History
When you open the chatbot with no active conversation, your recent sessions appear at the top:- Session title — taken from your first message
- Timestamp — how long ago the conversation happened
- Message preview — expand to see the full exchange
Tips
Be specific about what you want
Be specific about what you want
Instead of “add a component”, say “add a Slack notification that sends to #customer-alerts when health drops below 50”. The more context you give, the better the result.
Build incrementally
Build incrementally
Start with the trigger, then add one component at a time. This gives the assistant context about what you’ve already built so it can suggest the right next step.
Use Assistant Mode before editing

If you’re working with an unfamiliar workflow, switch to Assistant Mode first to understand the flow before making changes in Creation Mode.
