  description: '> Bulk-trigger a workflow across a filtered set of contacts


    A Run Workflow Action enqueues an entire audience of contacts into a workflow in a single async operation. Requires a `workflow_id`. Set `force_run: true` to re-run contacts already in the workflow.


    **Target selection** — supply exactly one of:

    - `stable_id` — a URL-encoded Refine `stable_id` token.

    - `stored_filter_id` — the `id` or `public_id` of a saved `Refine::StoredFilter` (ContactsFilter). Also accepted as `filter_id`.

    - `target_ids` — an explicit array of contact public IDs.

    - `target_all` — `true` to target every contact in the workspace.


    **Progress tracking** — after creating a Run Workflow Action, poll it with `GET /api/v2/contacts/run_workflow_actions/{id}`.


    See the [Workflows Skill](https://accounts.myclickfunnels.com/.well-known/workflows/skill.md) for building the workflow this action enrolls contacts into, and [Enabling, disabling](https://accounts.myclickfunnels.com/.well-known/workflows/skill.md#enabling-disabling) for taking it live.

The action runs asynchronously — poll the returned record with `GET /api/v2/contacts/run_workflow_actions/{id}` to track progress via `target_count` and `performed_count`.

        Exactly one target selection must be supplied: `stable_id`, `stored_filter_id` (alias `filter_id`), `target_ids`, or `target_all`. Returns 422 if none is provided or if the supplied value is invalid.
