# PayloadCMS Workflows Plugin Examples
This directory contains example code demonstrating how to use the PayloadCMS Workflows plugin.
## Manual Trigger Example
The `manual-trigger-example.ts` file shows how to:
- Create a workflow with a manual trigger button in the admin UI
- Trigger workflows programmatically using custom triggers
- Access trigger data in workflow steps using JSONPath
### Setting up a Manual Trigger Workflow
1. Configure the plugin with a custom trigger:
```typescript
workflowsPlugin({
triggers: [
{
slug: 'manual-trigger',
inputs: [] // No inputs needed for simple manual triggers
}
],
// ... other config
})
```
2. Create a workflow with the manual trigger:
```typescript
await payload.create({
collection: 'workflows',
data: {
name: 'My Manual Workflow',
triggers: [
{
type: 'manual-trigger'
}
],
steps: [
// Your workflow steps here
]
}
})
```
3. The workflow will now have a "Trigger Workflow" button in the admin UI
### Triggering Workflows Programmatically
```typescript
import { triggerCustomWorkflow } from '@xtr-dev/payload-automation'
// Trigger all workflows with 'manual-trigger'
const results = await triggerCustomWorkflow(payload, {
slug: 'manual-trigger',
data: {
// Custom data to pass to the workflow
source: 'api',
timestamp: new Date().toISOString()
}
})
```
### Accessing Trigger Data in Steps
Use JSONPath expressions to access trigger data in your workflow steps:
- `$.trigger.data.source` - Access custom data fields
- `$.trigger.type` - The trigger type
- `$.trigger.triggeredAt` - When the trigger was activated

// externalService.on('data-ready', async (event) => {
// await triggerCustomWorkflow(payload, {

documentType: 'post',
reviewerId: 'auto-review',

*
* 3. The trigger passes data to the workflow execution context, accessible via:
* - $.trigger.data - The custom data passed when triggering
* - $.trigger.type - The trigger type ('manual-trigger')
* - $.trigger.triggeredAt - Timestamp of when the trigger was activated
*
* 4. Manual triggers are useful for:
* - Administrative tasks
* - Data migration workflows
* - Testing and debugging
* - On-demand processing
