Kibana workflows API is one of 60 APIs that [Kibana](https://apis.io/providers/kibana/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Workflows. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, API documentation, and authentication docs.

Workflows enable you to automate multi-step processes directly in Kibana. Define sequences of steps in YAML to transform data insights into automated actions and outcomes, without needing external automation tools. Use the workflows APIs to create, manage, and run workflows programmatically. You can also search, export, import, and monitor workflow executions.
