Running Workflows

Once you've built your workflow, it's time to run it and see the results. This guide covers everything about executing workflows and managing outputs.

Running Options

You have two main ways to run your workflow:

Run Single Node

Execute just one specific node.

When to use:

• Testing a specific step
• Iterating on one part of the workflow
• Saving credits by not running everything

Run Entire Workflow

Execute all connected nodes in order.

When to use:

• Running your complete pipeline
• Generating final outputs
• Processing multiple steps automatically

Running a Single Node

How To

1. Select the node you want to run
2. Click the ▶ (play) button on the node
3. Wait for generation to complete
4. View the result in the node

What Happens

• Only that specific node runs
• Uses inputs currently connected to it
• Previous nodes must have already run (or have content)

Credit Check

Before running, you'll see the estimated credit cost on the node.

Running the Entire Workflow

How To

1. Click "Run All" in the top toolbar
2. Confirm if prompted (especially for expensive workflows)
3. Watch as nodes execute in order
4. View results as they complete

Execution Order

Nodes run in dependency order:

1. Nodes with no inputs run first
2. Nodes that depend on those outputs run next
3. Continue until all nodes complete

Example:

[Text] → [Image] → [Upscaler]
  1st       2nd        3rd

Understanding Progress

Node States

Progress Indicators

During generation:

• Spinner on the running node
• Progress bar (for some models)
• Time elapsed display

Viewing Results

In-Node Preview

Results appear directly in the node:

Full Preview

• Click the preview thumbnail
• Opens larger view
• Includes download option

Gallery

All generated content is automatically saved to your Gallery:

• Access from sidebar
• Filter by type
• Search by date
• Download anytime

Managing Credits

Before Running

• Check estimated cost on each node
• "Run All" shows total estimated cost
• Ensure you have enough credits

During Running

• Credits deducted as each node completes
• Running total shown in interface

After Running

• Final credit usage displayed
• Check your remaining balance

Cost Optimization

• Test with cheaper models first
• Run only necessary nodes
• Don't run upscaler until you're happy with the image

Handling Errors

Common Error Types

When Errors Occur

1. Read the error message — Usually explains the issue
2. Check your inputs — Are all required connections made?
3. Try again — Sometimes temporary issues resolve
4. Modify and retry — Adjust prompt or settings
5. Try different model — Some models handle certain content better

Error Recovery

• Previous successful nodes keep their results
• Fix the error and re-run just that node
• No need to restart the entire workflow

Workflow Execution Tips

Testing Strategy

1. Run nodes individually first to verify each step
2. Start with cheap models for testing
3. Run full workflow once you're confident
4. Upgrade to quality models for final output

Efficient Workflows

• Don't include unnecessary nodes
• Remove unused connections
• Use appropriate model quality for each step

Iterating

When refining your output:

1. Identify which node needs changes
2. Modify just that node's settings
3. Re-run from that node forward
4. Compare results

Saving and Downloading

Auto-Save

• Canvas auto-saves as you work
• Results are saved automatically
• Access from Gallery anytime

Manual Download

For each completed node:

1. Click the download icon on the result
2. Choose save location
3. File downloads to your computer

Bulk Download

From Gallery:

• Select multiple assets
• Download as batch

Re-Running Workflows

Same Settings

Just click Run again—uses current settings.

Modified Settings

1. Change node settings as needed
2. Run the modified node
3. Downstream nodes may need re-running

Fresh Start

To completely restart:

1. Clear results from nodes (if needed)
2. Run entire workflow fresh

Keyboard Shortcuts

Best Practices

Before Running

• ✅ Verify all connections
• ✅ Check credit estimates
• ✅ Review prompts and settings
• ✅ Ensure inputs are ready

During Running

• ✅ Monitor progress
• ✅ Watch for errors
• ✅ Don't navigate away (for long runs)

After Running

• ✅ Review all outputs
• ✅ Download important results
• ✅ Note what worked well
• ✅ Save successful workflows

Troubleshooting

Workflow Won't Start

• Check all required inputs are connected
• Verify you have sufficient credits
• Ensure no nodes are already running

Results Not Appearing

• Wait for completion (check for spinner)
• Refresh the page if stuck
• Check for error messages

Slow Performance

• Complex workflows take time
• Video generation is especially slow
• Check your internet connection

Next Steps

• Creating Apps — Turn workflows into reusable Apps
• The Gallery — Manage your generated content
• Multi-Step Workflows — Build complex pipelines
