Flows

Flows

Flows Overview

With Flows, your instance can have multiple workflows, or flows, which are made of blocks that represent essential parts of the data-extraction process. In addition to Classification, Identification, and Transcription Blocks, you can work with various features to enhance your workflows.

Flow Blocks

With the introduction of flows, we have created the following types of blocks to help you customize your flows to meet your teams’ needs. To learn more about any of these blocks, or for assistance in adding them to your flows, contact your Hyperscience representative.

Modifying Custom Code Blocks

Accessing this feature Your access to the feature described in this article depends on your license package and pricing plan. To learn which features are available to your organization and how to add more, contact your Hyperscience representative.

Document Processing Subflow Settings

This article describes the settings available in the Document Processing Subflow included in v41. The settings available in custom flows may differ from those described here, depending on which blocks are included in those flows. To learn more about these settings, contact your Hyperscience representative.

Managing Flows

The sections below describe how you can manage flows in your instance of Hyperscience. Note that you may need Hyperscience’s assistance to complete some of these tasks. Create flows You can only add a new flow to your instance by duplicating an existing flow.

Connecting Flow Blocks to Other Flows

While there are many ways to customize individual flows, you may also want to configure custom behavior outside of a flow for submissions processed through certain blocks. For example, you may need to send submissions' state-change information to your other applications or services.

Testing and Debugging Flows

With our testing and debugging tools, you can see more information about why a particular submission failed. You can also learn more about how flows are constructed and use what you've learned to build and test your own flows with our Flows SDK.

Flow Runs Page

When a submission is processed in Hyperscience, its flow-execution information can be viewed in the Hyperscience application. This information can be used to determine why the number of submissions ingested is greater than the number of submissions processed.
