SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This capability enables building durable, resumable workflows with Vercel's Workflow SDK. Use when designing processes that must survive restarts, pause for external events, retry on failure, or coordinate multi-step operations over time.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Durable, restart-tolerant workflows that endure interruptions.
  • Pause and resume via external events (hooks) and retries across time.
  • Coordinated multi-step orchestration across API routes and serverless functions.

Quick Start

Create and start a durable, resumable workflow using the Workflow SDK from an API route or serverless function.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build durable workflows that survive serverless function restarts?▼

Durable workflows survive serverless restarts by using step-based orchestration with deterministic hooks. This approach ensures long-running tasks persist interruptions, maintaining state safely across multiple API routes without losing progress.

What is step-based orchestration for coordinating multi-step operations across API routes?▼

Step-based orchestration coordinates multi-step operations across API routes by structuring tasks into deterministic, resumable steps. This mechanism enables cross-service coordination, allowing complex processes to execute reliably over time.

Can I pause and resume long-running tasks in serverless functions waiting for external events?▼

Yes, you can pause and resume long-running tasks in serverless functions using external event hooks. Workflows wait for specific triggers, then automatically resume execution, enabling reliable cross-service coordination without blocking resources.

Does the Vercel Workflow SDK support retries for coordinated multi-step orchestration?▼

Yes, the Vercel Workflow SDK supports retries across time for coordinated multi-step orchestration. It applies deterministic hooks to safely retry failed steps, ensuring durable execution across API routes and serverless functions.

When do I need durable workflows with observability tooling for my serverless architecture?▼

You need durable workflows with observability tooling when serverless architecture requires long-running tasks, external event synchronization, or cross-service coordination. It ensures restart-safe execution and provides monitoring for complex multi-step operations.
