Workflow authoring techniques

Techniques that apply across workflow types, regardless of which outcome you're automating. Use this section when you're building or maintaining a workflow and need guidance on the mechanics.

• Use the YAML editor: Author and run workflows in the YAML editor in Kibana.
• Pass data and handle errors: Move data between steps, use dynamic templating, and make workflows resilient with on-failure.
• Human-in-the-loop: Pause a workflow for reviewer input and resume on their decision.
• Monitor workflow execution: Track runs, review execution history, and troubleshoot failures.
• Manage and organize workflows: Find, edit, duplicate, enable, and disable workflows from the Workflows page.
• Migrate workflows from 9.3 to 9.4: Side-by-side replacements for the deprecated Case aliases, HTTP step timeout relocation, and scheduled-trigger minimum interval.
