interactor-workflows

Human-in-the-loop workflow automation coordinates state machines that halt at approval steps, waiting for human input before transitioning. You define states, transitions, and terminal states to model processes like expense approvals, onboarding, or order processing, then resume automatically once approval is granted.

State machine workflow automation requires Interactor setup, a configured webhook endpoint for notifications, and working knowledge of states, transitions, and thread management. These components enable conditional logic, halting for human input, and external system triggers.

Model conditional logic and halting actions by defining a state machine with explicit states, transitions, and terminal states. Configure halting actions to pause the workflow for human-in-the-loop approvals, then use transitions to resume, escalate, or complete the process based on the human input received.

Webhook notifications enable progress tracking and external system triggers within workflow automation. You configure a webhook endpoint during Interactor setup to receive notifications at state transitions, enabling real-time monitoring and downstream system triggers throughout the human-in-the-loop approval process.

Use state machine workflows for human-in-the-loop processes when you need conditional logic with human input for expense approvals, purchase approvals, onboarding, order processing, or ticket escalation. They suit scenarios requiring halting actions, human handoffs, and terminal states with webhook-based progress tracking.
