AI Workflows Features & Benefits

Workflow Automation

AI Workflows let you connect many campus tools and services through an automated workflow that would otherwise require deep programming knowledge. You can also build workflows using department- or unit-specific APIs.   

Graphical Interface

AI Workflows' intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) enables quick workflow construction, with plenty of built-in nodes for services faculty and staff use every day.

Nodes

This is only a short list of the built-in nodes provided by AI Workflows.

  • Google (drive, mail, sheets, etc)
  • Dropbox
  • Slack
  • TDX

Additional generic nodes are available to handle conditional logic, code, and aggregation functions.

Workflow Templates

AI Workflows offers several templates to help you get started building workflows. The underlying service, n8n, also has thousands of searchable community templates to inspire ideas. 

Agentic AI

AI Workflows leverages the power of AI by giving you the ability to add any UM Toolkit-supported LLM, such as GPT-5, into your workflows. The AI node makes it easy to create prompts and connect tools to deliver the results you need.
