Workflow provisioning in Keep allows you to set up and manage workflows dynamically. This feature enables you to configure various automated processes and tasks within your Keep deployment.

​
Configuring Workflows

To provision workflows, follow these steps:
  1. Set the KEEP_WORKFLOWS_DIRECTORY environment variable to the path of your workflow configuration directory.
  2. Create workflow configuration files in the specified directory.
Example directory structure: 
/path/to/workflows/
├── workflow1.yaml
├── workflow2.yaml
└── workflow3.yaml

​
Update Provisioned Workflows

On every restart, Keep reads the KEEP_WORKFLOWS_DIRECTORY environment variable and determines which workflows need to be added, removed, or updated. This process allows for flexible management of workflows without requiring manual intervention. By simply updating the workflow files in the KEEP_WORKFLOWS_DIRECTORY and restarting the application, you can efficiently add new workflows, remove existing ones, or modify their configurations. The high-level provisioning mechanism:
  1. Keep reads the KEEP_WORKFLOWS_DIRECTORY value.
  2. Keep lists all workflow files under the KEEP_WORKFLOWS_DIRECTORY directory.
  3. Keep compares the current workflow files with the previously provisioned workflows:
    • New workflow files are provisioned.
    • Missing workflow files are deprovisioned.
    • Updated workflow files are re-provisioned with the new configuration.
  4. Keep updates its internal state to reflect the current set of provisioned workflows.
