Run a Flow and Await its Result

with Windmill

Run a Windmill flow by path and wait for the asynchronous job result.

  1. Fetch the flow metadata to confirm the path exists before running it.
  2. Submit an asynchronous run of the flow by path. The response body is the newly created job UUID as plain text.
  3. Poll the job-updates endpoint. While the job is still running the completed flag is false and the flow loops back to poll again; once completed it proceeds to read the result.
  4. Read the completed job result once the flow run has finished.
What you'll need to have ready
  • token: Windmill API token presented as a Bearer credential.
  • workspace: The Windmill workspace id.
  • path: The flow path to run (e.g. "f/examples/my_flow").
  • args: The argument map passed to the flow as its inputs.
