A manual run executes the workflow immediately using the input you provide. It’s the simplest way to run a workflow and the best way to test one before automating it further.

​
How to run manually

  1. Open the workflow from your dashboard
  2. Click Run
  3. If the workflow requires an input — an uploaded file, a value, or a dataset — provide it when prompted
  4. Felix executes each step in sequence and displays the output

​
Providing input

Some workflows are self-contained — they fetch their own data from connected services and need no input from you. Others require you to provide something before the run starts: a document to process, a list of records, a date range. 
Accept an uploaded PDF contract as input. Extract the parties,
start date, end date, notice period, and governing law.

​
Re-running a workflow

To run again with the same input, open the run from your run history and click Re-run. To run with different input, click Run from the workflow and provide new input.

​
Re-running from a failed step

If a run fails partway through, fix the step that caused the failure and click Run from here to resume without re-running the steps that already completed.

Tips

  • Run manually first before scheduling. Confirm the output is correct on a real input.
  • Use manual runs for one-off tasks. Not every workflow needs to be scheduled.
  • Share the workflow with your team. Once working, others can run it manually without building anything. See Share.
