Step types

The steps in the workflow editor’s add-step dialog, with the dialog’s own descriptions. This list is generated from the editor, so it always matches what you see. Each name links to its guide in Steps.

Common

Step	What it does
Invoke tool	Use a connected app or built-in tool to perform an action.
Calculation	Calculate a value from earlier data and save it for later steps.
Log	Write a message and optional data to the workflow log.
Set variables	Save a value for later steps in this workflow.
Classify	Choose one of your classes and follow its connected exit.
Extract	Extract named fields from text for later steps.

Advanced

Step	What it does
Transform	Make named outputs from earlier data. Use Advanced JSON for complex shapes.
Wait	Pause until an approval, a time, or an outside event.

Steps saved before a type was replaced keep working. Agent judgment, for example, still runs in older workflows, but new workflows use Classify and Extract instead.
