Making the run request

From the npm package, to run a workflow:

import { runWorkflow } from '@fabricate-tools/client'


const { result, task } = await runWorkflow({
  apiKey: 'your-api-key',
  apiUrl: 'https://fabricate.tonic.ai/api/v1',
  workspace: 'my_workspace',
  database: 'my_database',
  workflow: 'my_workflow',
  params: {
    paramName: 'paramValue'
  }
})

You can optionally request progress updates:

const { result, task } = await runWorkflow({
  apiKey: 'your-api-key',
  apiUrl: 'https://fabricate.tonic.ai/api/v1',
  workspace: 'my_workspace',
  database: 'my_database',
  workflow: 'my_workflow',
  params: {
    paramName: 'paramValue'
  },
  onProgress: ({ status, message }) => {
    console.log(`[${status}] ${message}`)
  },
})

Listing and downloading workflow generated files

Listing the generated files

To run the workflow and then list the files that the workflow generates:

const { result, task, downloadFile, downloadAllFiles } = await runWorkflow({
  apiKey: 'your-api-key',
  apiUrl: 'https://fabricate.tonic.ai/api/v1',
  workspace: 'my_workflow',
  database: 'my_database',
  workflow: 'export_report',
  params: { format: 'csv' },
})

if (task.files && task.files.length > 0) {
  console.log('Generated files:')
  for (const file of task.files) {
    console.log(`  - ${file.name} (${file.content_type}, ${file.size} bytes)`)
  }
}

Downloading all of the generated files

To run a workflow and then download all of the generated files:

const { result, task, downloadFile, downloadAllFiles } = await runWorkflow({
  apiKey: 'your-api-key',
  apiUrl: 'https://fabricate.tonic.ai/api/v1',
  workspace: 'my_workflow',
  database: 'my_database',
  workflow: 'export_report',
  params: { format: 'csv' },
})

  await downloadAllFiles('./output')
}

Downloading a specific file

To run a workflow and then download a specific generated file based on its identifier to a specified file name:

const { result, task, downloadFile, downloadAllFiles } = await runWorkflow({
  apiKey: 'your-api-key',
  apiUrl: 'https://fabricate.tonic.ai/api/v1',
  workspace: 'my_workflow',
  database: 'my_database',
  workflow: 'export_report',
  params: { format: 'csv' },
})


  const file = task.files[0]
  await downloadFile(file.id, `./output/${file.name}`)
}
