Automating Business Processes
This page explains how to automate business processes using Agentiqs' workflow functionality.
Workflows are defined by combining rules (conditions, branches, etc.) and AI agents.
By fixing the steps with rules, omissions and errors are prevented, and by leaving only the processes requiring judgment to the AI, variations in answers can be reduced.
Creating a Workflow
This explains the procedure for creating an Agentiqs workflow.
- Click [Workflow] > [Create with AI].
- A chat screen will appear on the right side of the screen.
- Interactively discuss the process you want to automate with the AI via chat.
- The workflow will be created once sufficient information has been obtained.
Editing the Workflow
This explains the procedure for editing the created workflow.
- Click [Workflow].
- A list of workflows will be displayed.
- Select the workflow you want to edit.
- The workflow editing screen will be displayed.
- Click the [AI] tab in the right-hand pane.
- The chat screen will be displayed.
- Edit the workflow while interactively consulting with the AI via chat.
- Workflows created and edited interactively with AI do not always function correctly.
Click the [Publish] button to verify and confirm that there are no errors.
Also, run a test to confirm that you get the intended results.
Parameters per Step
The setting parameters for each step (especially tool execution) require consideration of the interface and tool implementation, so
it is assumed that they will be set through interaction with the AI.
A filter function is provided that performs "conversion" and "judgment" on values specified in conditional expressions.
