Workflow Integration Guides

Last updated: April 2026

Welcome to the Integration Guides for the Agglestone Workflow Management Service. These guides explain how to work with the public API endpoints, show common request patterns, and provide example payloads you can adapt for your own tenant.

Getting Started

If you’re new to the service, start with the Quick Start Guide. It walks through the main flow of creating a workflow definition, starting a workflow item, updating it, and moving it through a transition.
