How Rulex automates workflows
Implement an API-first approach
Rulex Platform offers a comprehensive set of REST APIs to enable smooth automation across multiple systems and services.
Through APIs, users can import and execute workflows without manual intervention, while also efficiently managing environment variables.
Schedule according to your needs
Workflows can be triggered in response to specific events to adapt to changing business circumstances, or scheduled to obtain up-to-date information whenever and however most needed.
This functionality is compatible with a wide range of scheduling tools, from Windows Task Scheduler to enterprise-level solutions.
Automate with script creation
Rulex Platform also supports automation by enabling API calls through a Command Line Interface (CLI), accessible from scripting languages such as PowerShell or standard command prompts.
Leveraging the CLI, developers can script any interaction with Rulex, from computing flows to modifying configurations, enabling the automation of multiple business scenarios.
Stay informed with alerts
Keep workflows running smoothly with instant email alerts that provide notifications of any issues as they happen. The color-coded system highlights alert urgency for prompt, appropriate responses.
Configuring and managing alerts is easy with Rulex Platform’s intuitive GUI. Users can set up alerts for key events – like task start/end, errors, and delays – to stay informed. When computations are launched via CLI, alerts provide essential details such as execution time, encountered errors, and task durations, so users are always ready to take action.

INTEGRATING WITH ENTERPRISE SCHEDULING TOOLS
A major F50 global supply chain needed to schedule interconnected Rulex workflows to totally automate production, reaching a total of 14,000 executions per month.
By integrating with a third-party scheduling tool already in use, Rulex Platform minimized disruptions.
Flow operations were scheduled to run at specific times – daily, hourly, weekly – according to business needs and production calendars, and arranged in a precise order so that the output of one flow fed into the next.
GETTING INSTANT NOTIFICATIONS TO YOUR EMAIL
Unnoticed issues can impact operations.
A global company relied on Rulex Platform’s alert system to oversee critical processes. Custom alerts monitored entire workflows, detecting problems like missing files, failed connections, and empty datasets causing computation timeouts.
Automated email notifications updated the team in real time, with color-coded urgency levels guiding quick responses. This proactive approach prevented costly delays and kept workflows on track.
RAPIDLY DEBUGGING WITH SAVED COMPUTATIONS
Flow computations may produce anomalous results due to corner cases or incoherent input data.
Rulex Platform helped an international company improve debugging by automatically exporting and saving daily-scheduled workflows for quick access in case of issues.
Teams could safely conduct analyses and identify root causes on their devices, replicating issues outside the production environment as needed. With the capability to inspect each task in a flow, users benefited from detailed visibility at every step.
