# Introduction to LAO

Welcome to the **Lyzr Agent Orchestration (LAO)** documentation. This guide provides a comprehensive overview of how to define and execute intelligent workflows using Lyzr Agents.

LAO is a powerful JSON-based framework designed to enable seamless orchestration of tasks involving:

* Lyzr Agent executions
* API interactions
* Chained task automation

Whether you are automating customer emails or making real-time API calls, LAO allows you to define these processes clearly and efficiently.

## What You Can Do with LAO

With LAO, you can:

* Chain multiple tasks into a single flow
* Define reusable input values using `default_inputs`
* Integrate both agent and external API calls
* Make one task depend on the output of another

This documentation is structured into the following sections:

* **Workflow Structure**: Understand the JSON structure of an LAO workflow.
* **Task Definition**: Learn how to configure tasks within your flow.
* **Calling a Lyzr Agent**: Step-by-step example of integrating a Lyzr agent.
* **Making API Calls**: Example on making API requests within LAO.
* **Advanced Concepts**: Chaining, dependencies, and best practices.

By the end of this guide, you’ll be able to build and deploy robust automated workflows using LAO.
