Run existing tool runs another tool as a step in this flow. Build something once, like fetching a customer record, and reuse it in every tool that needs it. Publish changes to the shared tool to make them available to live runs that use it.
To reuse a workflow in the automation workspace, see Run existing workflow. The parameter and output settings below work the same way for workflows.
The calling tool or workflow waits for the reused one to finish and can use its result. To start background work from a conversation, see Trigger workflow.
Adding one
In the step menu under Reuse, pick the tool to run. You can also type a name and add it as a draft: the step is created now, and you build the draft tool later. Open tool opens the referenced tool in a new tab.
Parameters
The referenced tool's input parameters appear under Parameters. Map a value to each one; required parameters are marked with an asterisk, and each parameter's description appears on hover.
The tool's result becomes this step's output, stored in the variable you pick under Select output variable.
