Trigger a workflow

How agents trigger Dailybot workflows: HTTP trigger, payload, and what workflows can do.

Workflow triggers let an external system — including an AI agent or script — start a Dailybot workflow with an HTTP request. The workflow can post to a channel, run a command, update a form, or run other automations.

How it works

You create a workflow in Dailybot and configure an HTTP trigger. The trigger has a unique URL and optional secret. When your agent sends a POST request to that URL (with optional JSON body), the workflow runs. You can pass variables (e.g. agent name, status, summary) into the workflow.

Full details

For request format, authentication, and examples, see the developer docs: Workflow trigger. That page covers the POST contract, payload shape, and how to wire workflows to channels and actions.
