Tela

Integrates with Tela to run AI-driven workflows and automation tasks

Canvas → Execute

AI-generated

Overview

This node integrates with the Tela platform to execute a specified canvas within a selected project. It allows users to run AI-driven workflows by providing the project and canvas identifiers, along with optional variables to customize the execution. The node supports both synchronous and asynchronous execution modes, where asynchronous mode returns immediately with a completion ID and status instead of waiting for the full result. This is useful for automating tasks that require AI processing within a defined canvas workflow, such as data transformation, automation tasks, or AI-driven decision-making processes.

Use Case Examples

  1. Execute a canvas in a project with specific variables to automate a data processing workflow.
  2. Run a canvas asynchronously to trigger an AI task and retrieve the completion status later.

Properties

Name Meaning
Project Select the project containing your canvas. This is required to identify the scope of the canvas to execute.
Canvas Select the specific canvas to execute within the chosen project. This identifies the AI workflow to run.
Variables Set variables for the canvas execution. These variables are automatically populated based on the selected canvas and allow customization of the workflow's input parameters.
Async Execution When enabled, the execution request returns immediately with a completion ID and status instead of waiting for the full result, allowing asynchronous processing.

Output

JSON

  • json - The JSON output contains the result of the canvas execution or the completion status if asynchronous execution is enabled.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for Tela API authentication to interact with the Tela platform.

Troubleshooting

  • If the node fails to load projects, canvases, or variables, check the API credentials and network connectivity.
  • Errors during execution may occur if the selected canvas or project ID is invalid or if required variables are missing.
  • Enabling 'Continue On Fail' in node settings can help skip failed items and continue processing others.
