Retrieve a flow by ID
Retrieve a specific flow by ID.
Returns the latest version of a flow with its complete definition, metadata, and optional computed fields. This endpoint is typically used when displaying flow details or preparing to execute a flow.
Behavior
- Always returns the latest version unless a specific version is requested via
/flows/{flow_id}/versions/{version} - Use expansion parameters to include computed fields (see FlowResponse model docs)
Use Cases
- Display flow details in your application UI
- Retrieve flow definition before execution
- Check flow validation status and errors
Header Parameters
Query Parameters
Include topologically sorted list of task names in execution order. Useful for visualizing task dependencies. Adds ~50ms latency for complex flows with 20+ tasks.
Include DSL validation errors if the flow definition is malformed. Essential for debugging invalid flows during development. No performance impact as validation runs regardless.
Include runtime configuration options for each task (e.g., dropdown values, available resources). Requires authentication to external services. May add 100-500ms latency depending on integration APIs.
Include JSON Schema definitions for each task's output structure. Required for building dynamic UIs or validating task connections. Adds ~10-50ms latency for schema generation.
Path Parameters
Response
Response Attributes
Complete flow definition in DSL format. May be enriched with additional fields when using expansion parameters (include_dynamic_data, include_output_schemas). Enriched fields are added to each task within definition.tasks[].
Human-readable flow name
Total number of times this flow has been executed across all versions
Whether this is the latest version of the flow
Organization that owns this flow
Flow lifecycle status. Values: 'draft' (editable), 'published' (ready for production use)
