# Workflows API . projects . locations . workflows

## Instance Methods

Close httplib2 connections.

Creates a new workflow. If a workflow with the specified name already exists in the specified project and location, the long running operation will return ALREADY_EXISTS error.

Deletes a workflow with the specified name. This method also cancels and deletes all running executions of the workflow.

Gets details of a single Workflow.

Lists Workflows in a given project and location. The default order is not specified.

Retrieves the next page of results.

Updates an existing workflow. Running this method has no impact on already running executions of the workflow. A new revision of the workflow may be created as a result of a successful update operation. In that case, such revision will be used in new workflow executions.

### Method Details

`close()`

    Close httplib2 connections.

`create(parent, body=None, workflowId=None, x__xgafv=None)`

    Creates a new workflow. If a workflow with the specified name already exists in the specified project and location, the long running operation will return ALREADY_EXISTS error.

    Args:
      parent: string, Required. Project and location in which the workflow should be created. Format: projects/{project}/locations/{location} (required)
      body: object, The request body.
        The object takes the form of:

    { # Workflow program to be executed by Workflows.
      "updateTime": "A String", # Output only. The last update timestamp of the workflow.
      "revisionId": "A String", # Output only. The revision of the workflow. A new revision of a workflow is created as a result of updating the following fields of a workflow: - `source_code` - `service_account` The format is "000001-a4d", where the first 6 characters define the zero-padded revision ordinal number. They are followed by a hyphen and 3 hexadecimal random characters.
      "revisionCreateTime": "A String", # Output only. The timestamp that the latest revision of the workflow was created.
      "createTime": "A String", # Output only. The timestamp of when the workflow was created.
      "state": "A String", # Output only. State of the workflow deployment.
      "name": "A String", # The resource name of the workflow. Format: projects/{project}/locations/{location}/workflows/{workflow}
      "sourceContents": "A String", # Workflow code to be executed. The size limit is 32KB.
      "labels": { # Labels associated with this workflow. Labels can contain at most 64 entries. Keys and values can be no longer than 63 characters and can only contain lowercase letters, numeric characters, underscores and dashes. Label keys must start with a letter. International characters are allowed.
        "a_key": "A String",
      },
      "serviceAccount": "A String", # Name of the service account associated with the latest workflow version. This service account represents the identity of the workflow and determines what permissions the workflow has. Format: projects/{project}/serviceAccounts/{account} Using `-` as a wildcard for the `{project}` will infer the project from the account. The `{account}` value can be the `email` address or the `unique_id` of the service account. If not provided, workflow will use the project's default service account. Modifying this field for an existing workflow results in a new workflow revision.
      "description": "A String", # Description of the workflow provided by the user. Must be at most 1000 unicode characters long.
    }

      workflowId: string, Required. The ID of the workflow to be created. It has to fulfill the following requirements: * Must contain only letters, numbers, underscores and hyphens. * Must start with a letter. * Must be between 1-64 characters. * Must end with a number or a letter. * Must be unique within the customer project and location.
