FAQPage Schema
How do I generate YAML flow files for mobile automation?

You can generate YAML flow files for mobile automation by drafting a new flow skeleton with AppClaw, which structures your metadata headers and applies variable interpolation from .appclaw/env/ before validating the syntax.

Can I use environment variables and secrets in AppClaw YAML flows?

Yes, AppClaw YAML flows support variable and secret interpolation sourced directly from the .appclaw/env/ directory, allowing you to securely inject environment-specific configurations into your mobile automation workflows.

Does AppClaw support both Android and iOS automation flows?

Yes, AppClaw supports generating and validating YAML flow files for both Android and iOS mobile automation, verifying compatibility with the flow parser across both platforms to ensure safe, idempotent execution.

What YAML flow formats can I create for AppClaw workflows?

AppClaw supports creating multiple YAML flow formats including flat, phased, parallel, and suite structures, enabling you to model complex mobile automation workflows from simple sequential steps to concurrent execution.

How do I fix invalid YAML syntax in an AppClaw flow file?

You can fix invalid YAML syntax in an AppClaw flow file by applying the built-in validation workflow, which checks your file against the flow parser to identify errors and ensure compatibility before execution.

What is the best way to structure AppClaw flows for consistent mobile QA automation?

The best way to structure AppClaw flows is to use the guided planning and validation workflow to generate metadata headers and YAML skeletons, ensuring safe, idempotent flow generation and reducing manual setup inconsistencies.
