Build your first app
An app is a self-service interface — a form or dashboard — that runs your scripts and workflows behind the scenes. In this tutorial you’ll wrap the welcome-flow workflow in a simple form.
Prerequisites: The welcome-flow workflow (see Your first workflow).
-
Open the app editor
In your Orvanta dashboard, create a new app and open the app editor.
-
Add a form component
Drop in a Form component. Because
welcome-flowdeclares anameinput, the form field can be generated from its schema — see Auto-generated UIs. -
Bind the form to the workflow
Set the form’s submit action to trigger
welcome-flow, mapping the form field to the workflow’snameinput. -
Display the result
Add a Text component bound to the run output so the greeting appears after submission.
-
Publish and share
Publish the app and share its URL with teammates. They can now run the workflow safely without touching the CLI — input is validated before the run starts.
