SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The Upstash Workflow JS skill provides guidance and tooling for building serverless, event‑driven workflows using the Upstash Workflow JavaScript/TypeScript SDK. It enables developers to compose endpoints and steps, manage retries, and orchestrate interactions across services with reliability and observability.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Orchestrate serverless workflows by composing endpoints, steps, and events with robust retry and failure handling.
  • Implement patterns like wait for events, nested invokes, and parallel tasks to build scalable automation.
  • Integrate with agents, tasks, and context APIs to connect external services, databases, and AI tools in production-grade flows.

Quick Start

Install the Upstash Workflow JS package and begin defining and running a basic workflow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I orchestrate serverless workflows with reliable retries in TypeScript?▼

You orchestrate serverless workflows in TypeScript by using the Upstash Workflow JS SDK to define endpoints, sequence steps, and manage retries with built-in reliability. It provides the context API to execute individual steps.

What is the best way to wait for an external event in a serverless workflow?▼

The best way to wait for an external event in a serverless workflow is using the context.waitForEvent pattern. This allows your workflow to pause execution reliably until a specific event is received, enabling robust event-driven automation.

How do I invoke nested workflows across multiple services in serverless environments?▼

You invoke nested workflows across multiple services using the context.invoke pattern provided by the Upstash Workflow JS SDK. This allows you to trigger and manage interactions across different endpoints and external services with production-grade reliability.

Does Upstash Workflow JS support parallel task execution and error handling?▼

Yes, Upstash Workflow JS supports parallel task execution and robust error handling. You can implement patterns for parallel tasks and manage failures natively to build scalable serverless automation without external orchestration tools.

How do I integrate external databases and AI tools into serverless workflow steps?▼

You integrate external databases and AI tools by using the context APIs within your workflow steps to connect external services. The SDK provides TypeScript examples and integration guides for connecting these tools in production-grade flows.
