How to develop an app to start workflow running?

[Nico67543]

Hi guys！

I want to develop an app. And when this app runs, a workflow will be triggered. 

Is it possible?

Hi @Nico67543 ,

Yes, it is possible with the Gallery APIs.

Creating a process used to be trickier, but fortunately, we can use the macro below for it.

You will have to download this tool: https://marketplace.alteryx.com/en-US/apps/418052/server-api-tool

You can access swagger from within your Server to do some tests before developing anything. It will look like the picture below.

The endpoint you have to use is this one: /v1/workflows/%7BappId%7D/jobs/

Best,
