Build durable serverless workflows and agent orchestration with the Upstash Workflow JavaScript SDK.
Work with the @upstash/workflow TypeScript/JavaScript SDK for durable, long-running workflows in serverless functions, multi-step processes that survive timeouts, retries, and restarts (built on QStash). Use when defining a workflow endpoint with serve(), running steps with context.run, sleeping for minutes to days without holding a function open, calling external APIs with context.call, waiting for an external event or webhook, invoking other workflows, configuring retries, failure callbacks, and a DLQ, controlling concurrency, rate, and parallelism, triggering, cancelling, or inspecting runs with the Workflow client, building AI agents and orchestrators, human-in-the-loop approvals, realtime updates, local development with the QStash dev server, adding middleware, or migrating workflows safely. Also use when the user asks for durable execution, step functions, saga or orchestration patterns, background jobs with checkpoints, or long-running tasks on Vercel, Next.js, Cloudflare Workers, or other serverless platforms.

# Upstash Workflow SDK

## Quick Start

The Upstash Workflow SDK lets you expose serverless workflow endpoints and run them reliably using QStash under the hood.

Install:

```bash
npm install @upstash/workflow
```

Define a simple workflow endpoint:

```ts
import { serve } from "@upstash/workflow";

export const { POST } = serve(async (context) => {
  await context.run("step-1", () => console.log("step 1"));
  await context.run("step-2", () => console.log("step 2"));
});
```

Trigger it from your backend:

```ts
import { Client } from "@upstash/workflow";

const client = new Client({ token: process.env.QSTASH_TOKEN! });
await client.trigger({ url: "https://your-app.com/api/workflow" });
```
