Key Concepts
FlowMaestro is built around a few core concepts that work together to create powerful automations.
Workflows
Workflows are visual automations built on a canvas. They consist of connected nodes that process data step-by-step.
Agents
Agents are AI-powered assistants that can hold conversations, remember context, and execute tools. Unlike workflows, agents can make decisions dynamically.
Triggers
Triggers are events that start your automations:
- Webhooks — HTTP requests from external systems
- Schedules — Time-based execution (cron)
- Events — Platform events like new messages or orders
Integrations
Integrations connect FlowMaestro to external services. Each integration provides operations you can use in workflows and agents.

Knowledge Bases
Knowledge Bases let you upload documents that your agents can search and reference. Perfect for building assistants with custom knowledge.
