Workflows und Läufe

Ein Workflow ist die versionierte Definition: Knoten, Kanten, Trigger und Einstellungen. Ein Lauf ist ein konkreter Durchgang dieser Definition zu einem bestimmten Zeitpunkt, mit Status und Protokollen.

💡 Definition vs. Ausführung

	Workflow	Run
Nature	JSON model + Dolibarr metadata	Execution instance
Lifecycle	Draft → active → archived	queued → running → terminal
Storage	Internal llx_knot_* tables	Executions history
Idempotency	Keys on nodes	Applied on each retry

💡 Workflow-Lebenszyklus

• Draft: free editing; Simulate allowed when Problems is clean.
• Active: triggers (cron, webhook, object event) can create runs.
• Archived: no new runs; history kept.

💡 Run states

Status	Meaning
queued	Waiting for Knot cron or execution slot
running	Engine processing the node chain
success	Finished without blocking error
error	Failure — check per-node logs
cancelled	Manual cancel
skipped	Branch not taken (e.g. If/Else)

Wiederholen

After a transient failure, retry re-runs the run and can honor idempotency when configured on the node.
