💡 Pro Tips

  1. Use Agent Studio UI: Always design workflows visually first, then export JSON for API use
  2. Start Simple: Begin with 2-3 node workflows, add complexity gradually
  3. Test Everything: Use staging environment that mirrors production
  4. Monitor Early: Set up WebSocket monitoring from day one
  5. Copy-Paste JSON: Don’t manually write workflow_data - get it from the Studio
  6. Document Workflows: Keep track of what each workflow does
  7. Version Control: Treat workflow definitions as code
  8. Error Recovery: Always plan for failure scenarios
  9. Performance: Monitor execution times and optimize bottlenecks
