Generate flow
Generate flow is an experimental feature that helps you auto-create machines from text descriptions. You can generate a flow for a new machine or use the flow description to describe how you want to modify your current flow.
You have 1000 generations available to use each month. The number of available generations is reset at the beginning of each calendar month.
There are many reasons you might want to generate your flows, including:
- You have a complex machine in mind and want to get started quickly
- You want an example of a state machine for a particular flow
- You’re new and want to get an idea of how you can model state machines
Generate a new flow​
Generating a new flow will overwrite your current machine with an all-new flow created from your text description.
- Use the Generate flow button to open the generate flow dialog.
- Deselect Generate from current flow to create an all-new flow. Read more about generate from current flow below.
- Enter a text description of the flow you want to generate in as much detail as possible.
- Use the Generate button to generate your flow.
When you generate an all-new flow, only your prompt text is sent to OpenAI.
Generate from current flow​
- Use the Generate flow button to open the generate flow dialog.
- Ensure Generate from current flow is selected to modify your current machine.
- Enter a text description of the changes you want to make to your machine in as much detail as possible.
- Use the Generate button to generate your flow.
When you use Generate from current flow, we share your machine definition with OpenAI to help build the response.
View history​
You can view a history of text descriptions used to generate flows for the current machine. Use the View history button inside the Generate flow dialog to find your Prompt history.
- Use Open flow to preview the version of the machine generated from the selected prompt.
- Use Copy to prompt to copy the selected prompt into the text description area of the Generate flow dialog.
A new version is auto-saved every time you generate a flow. Use the Versions panel and switch the Show auto-saved versions toggle on to browse auto-saved versions of your current machine.
