How can I share my flow?

To share your flow, export it as a JSON file and share it with others.

  1. From the Share menu, click Export.

  2. Complete the Name and Description fields.

  3. Select whether to share your keys or not. If your key value has been pasted into the component field, its value is exported completely. If your key value is saved as a global environment variable, only the variable name is shared. This is the safest method of exporting your key.

  4. Click Export. The JSON file is downloaded to your computer.

  5. To share your flow, send the JSON file to the recipient.

How do I share my playground with others?

Anyone in your Astra DB organization can access your playground. If you have the correct permissions, you can add a user to your organization.

Where is the API chat widget?

The DataStax Langflow API does not currently support the chat widget.

To use the chat widget, use the Langflow OSS API.
