Workflow App Plugin – Invoke Action
Summary (SEO Meta Description):
The Invoke Action of the Workflow App Plugin lets you call a published workflow app from within another workflow.
This enables modular automation, allowing you to reuse and orchestrate workflows efficiently.
Overview
Use the Invoke Action to run an existing published workflow app inside a parent workflow.
This action is ideal for chaining workflows or creating reusable workflow modules.
Typical Use Cases:
- Triggering a standardized data processing workflow from multiple parent workflows.
- Creating multi-step business processes by linking multiple workflows.
- Reducing duplication by centralizing shared logic in a single workflow app.
- Implementing a microservice-like architecture inside WeHub.

FAQ
Q: Can I invoke an unpublished workflow?
A: No. Only published workflows converted to apps are available for invocation.
Q: Does the invoked workflow run independently?
A: Yes. It runs as a separate workflow instance but can pass results back if designed to return output.
Q: How are input and output schemas handled?
A: The parent workflow must pass data in the format required by the invoked workflow app.
Outputs follow the schema defined by the invoked workflow.
