Quickstart
Start automating in under 5 minutes
Start with our examples
The best way to experience the power of Keyflow is by running a flow
. We have built some example flows
you can try right away. Check them out here
Let’s go through an example to understand how a flow
works. We will pick “Youtube Article Generator” for demonstration purposes.
Loading data
We start the flow
with an Input blocks
that provides the link of the Youtube video to be transcribed.
The data a block
returns can be connected to inputs of other blocks
.
Here we connect value
from Input Block to the video_link
of Get Youtube
Transcript Block.
Modifying data
Text block allows us to format text with any number of inputs. We can combine multiple strings in any order of our choice using this block.
To combine the strings, simply specify the format in which you want them. For example to combine two inputs consecutively, use {input_1} {input_2}
as the placeholders.
Here we take transcript
from the Get Youtube Transcript block and combine it with the context we want to provide to the LLM. This allows us to consolidate the transcript provided by the previous block and the context we want to provide to the LLM in a single question
for AI Analysis.
Now we have data we can pass for AI analysis!
AI Analysis
We take the Text block to combine the provided transcript along with our context. We can provide the context or ask any question in plain English!
Here we ask it to create an article from the transcript provided. The exact context is a bit more detailed. You can think of the context as a prompt
. The better you prompt the model, the better results you get.
We have provided a default prompt to help you get easy to understand articles straight from the video. You can modify the prompt as per your liking.
Taking Actions
Once AI has analysed the data, we can take actions on any apps we use. We can save it Notion, Google Docs, Google Sheets, or we can send it in an email or as an Whatsapp message. The sky is the limit!

Running a flow
Now we understand how the flow functions. Let’s run it! You can simply run a flow
by hitting the run button in the top right corner. Running a workflow will auto-save the current version of your workflow.
After hitting run, you will see the workflow in real-time as the blocks are being executed. The outputs of each block will be displayed in the side panel after they have completed processing.
This template uses the Gmail integration in Keyflow, so you must connect a gmail account first by navigating to the credentials page and connecting your Gmail account
Automating Flows
Keyflow is all about removing friction and automating your life. Running a flow
by clicking a button is cool but we don’t want to manually trigger them everytime we need something done.
You can create triggers to automatically run your flows! You can automatically trigger them:
- On a schedule
- When you receive an email
- When you remove/delete an email
- When you apply or remove a label to an email
- When you upload a file to Google Drive (coming soon ✨)
- via our API
