+# Create or update a workflow
+
+This is an experimental feature and is not recommended for use in a production environment. For updates on the progress of the feature or if you want to leave feedback, see the associated [GitHub issue](Link TBD).    
+{: .warning}
+
+Creating a workflow adds the content of a workflow template to the flow framework system index. You can provide workflows in JSON format (by specifying `Content-Type: application/json`) or YAML format (by specifying `Content-Type: application/yaml`). By default, the workflow is validated to help identify invalid configurations, including:
+
+* Workflow steps requiring an OpenSearch plugin that is not installed.
+* Workflow steps relying on previous node input that is provided by those steps.
+* Workflow step fields with invalid values.
+* Workflow graph (node/edge) configurations containing cycles or with duplicate IDs.
+
+To obtain the validation template for workflow steps, call the [Get Workflow Steps API]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/automating-workflows/api/get-workflow-steps/).
+
+Once a workflow is created, provide its `workflow_id` to other APIs.
+
+The `POST` method creates a new workflow. The `PUT` method updates an existing workflow. 
+
+You can only update a workflow if it has not yet been provisioned.
+{: .note}
+
+## Path and HTTP methods
+
+```json
+POST /_plugins/_flow_framework/workflow
+PUT /_plugins/_flow_framework/workflow/<workflow_id>
+```
+
+## Path parameters
+
+The following table lists the available path parameters. 
+
+| Parameter | Data type | Description |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| `workflow_id` | String | The ID of the workflow to be updated. Required for the `PUT` method. |
+
+## Query parameters
+
+Workflows are normally created and provisioned in separate steps. However, once you have thoroughly tested the workflow, you can combine the create and provision steps by including the `provision` query parameter:
+
+```json
+POST /_plugins/_flow_framework/workflow?provision=true
+```
+{% include copy-curl.html %}
+
+When set to `true`, the [Provision Workflow API]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/automating-workflows/api/provision-workflow/) is executed immediately following creation. 
+
+By default, workflows are validated when they are created to ensure that the syntax is valid and that the graph does not contain cycles. This behavior can be controlled with the `validation` query parameter. If `validation` is set to `all`, OpenSearch performs a complete template validation. Any other value of the `validation` parameter suppresses validation, allowing an incomplete/work-in-progress template to be saved. To disable template validation, set `validation` to `none`:
+
+```json
+POST /_plugins/_flow_framework/workflow?validation=none
+```
+{% include copy-curl.html %}
+
+The following table lists the available query parameters. All query parameters are optional.
+
+| Parameter | Data type | Description |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| `provision` | Boolean | Whether to provision the workflow as part of the request. Default is `false`. |
+| `validation` | String | Whether to validate the workflow. Valid values are `all` (validate the template) and `none` (do not validate the template). Default is `all`. |
+
+## Request fields
+
+The following table lists the available request fields.
+
+|Field	|Data type	|Required/Optional	|Description	|
+|:---	|:---	|:---	|:---	|
+|`name`	|String	|Required	|The name of the workflow.	|
+|`description`	|String	|Optional	|A description of the workflow.	|
+|`use_case`	|String	|Optional	| A use case, which can be used with the Search Workflow API to find related workflows. In the future, OpenSearch may provide some standard use cases to ease categorization, but currently you can use this field to specify custom values.	|
+|`version`	|Object	|Optional	| A key-value map with two fields: `template`, which identifies the template version, and `compatibility`, which identifies a list of minimum required OpenSearch versions.	|
+|`workflows`	|Object	|Optional	|A map of workflows. Presently, only the `provision` key is supported. The value for the workflow key is a key-value map that includes fields for `user_params` and lists of `nodes` and `edges`.	|
+
+#### Example request: Register and deploy an externally hosted model (YAML)
+
+To provide a template in YAML format, specify `Content-Type: application/yaml` in the request header:
+
+```bash
+curl -XPOST "http://localhost:9200/_plugins/_flow_framework/workflow" -H 'Content-Type: application/yaml'
+```
+
+YAML templates permit comments. 
+{: .tip}
+
+The following is an example YAML template for registering and deploying an externally hosted model:
+
+```yaml
+# This name is required
+name: createconnector-registerremotemodel-deploymodel
+# Other fields are optional but useful
+description: This template creates a connector to a remote model, registers it, and
+  deploys that model
+# Other templates with a similar use case can be searched
+use_case: REMOTE_MODEL_DEPLOYMENT
+version:
+  # Templates may be versioned by their authors
+  template: 1.0.0
+  # Compatibility with OpenSearch 2.12.0 and higher and 3.0.0 and higher
+  compatibility:
+  - 2.12.0
+  - 3.0.0
+# One or more workflows can be included, presently only provision is supported

+      # There may be multiple steps with the same type
+      type: create_connector

+      previous_node_inputs:
+        register_model_2: model_id
+    # Since the nodes include previous_node_inputs these are optional to define
+    # They will be added automatically and included in the stored template
+    # Additional edges may also be added here if required for sequencing
+    edges:
+    - source: create_connector_1
+      dest: register_model_2
+    - source: register_model_2
+      dest: deploy_model_3
+```
+{% include copy-curl.html %}

+#### Example request: Register and deploy a remote model (JSON)
+
+To provide a template in JSON format, specify `Content-Type: application/json` in the request header:
+
+```bash
+curl -XPOST "http://localhost:9200/_plugins/_flow_framework/workflow" -H 'Content-Type: application/json'

+{% include copy-curl.html %}
+
+#### Example response
+
+OpenSearch responds with the `workflow_id`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "workflow_id" : "8xL8bowB8y25Tqfenm50"
+}
+```
+
+Once you have created a workflow, you can use other workflow APIs with the `workflow_id`.

+
+This is an experimental feature and is not recommended for use in a production environment. For updates on the progress of the feature or if you want to leave feedback, see the associated [GitHub issue](Link TBD).    
+{: .warning}
+
+When you no longer need a workflow template, you can delete it by calling the Delete Workflow API. 
+
+Note that deleting a workflow only deletes the stored template but does not deprovision its resources.
