Langflow Integration
Langflow is a visual authoring platform for AI agents and workflows. PraisonAI provides native Langflow components for building agent workflows visually.
This integration is available via a Pull Request to the Langflow repository. Once merged, PraisonAI components will be available natively in Langflow.
Installation
# Install Langflow with PraisonAI support
pip install langflow praisonaiagents
Components
PraisonAI provides three components for Langflow:
PraisonAI Agent
Creates a single PraisonAI agent with full tool, memory, and knowledge support.
Key Inputs:
| Input | Description |
|---|
| Name | Agent identifier |
| Instructions | System prompt for the agent |
| Model | LLM model (e.g., openai/gpt-4o-mini, anthropic/claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022) |
| Tools | Connected Langflow tools |
| Memory | Enable context retention |
| Knowledge | Files/URLs for RAG |
| Handoffs | Other agents for collaboration |
| Guardrails | Output validation |
Outputs:
- Response - Agent response as Message
- Agent - Agent instance for multi-agent workflows
PraisonAI Agents
Orchestrates multiple agents working together.
Process Types:
| Process | Description |
|---|
| Sequential | Agents execute in order |
| Hierarchical | Manager agent coordinates workers |
| Workflow | Custom agent routing with decision points |
Key Inputs:
- Agents - List of PraisonAI Agent components
- Tasks - List of PraisonAI Task components
- Process - Orchestration mode
- Variables - Global substitution variables
- Guardrails - Team-level validation
PraisonAI Task
Defines a task for multi-agent workflows with structured output support.
Key Inputs:
| Input | Description |
|---|
| Description | What the task should accomplish |
| Expected Output | Desired output format |
| Output JSON | JSON schema for structured output |
| Task Type | task, decision, or loop |
| Condition | Branching conditions for workflow |
| Guardrail | Task-specific validation |
Quick Start
Single Agent
- Drag PraisonAI Agent onto the canvas
- Set instructions: “You are a helpful assistant”
- Connect Chat Input to the Agent’s Input
- Connect Agent’s Response to Chat Output
- Run the flow!
Multi-Agent Team
ChatInput → PraisonAI Agents → ChatOutput

Agent Agent Agent
- Create 3 PraisonAI Agent components with different roles
- Create a PraisonAI Agents component
- Connect all agents to the Agents component
- Set process to “sequential”
- Connect input/output
PraisonAI uses provider/model-name format:
| Provider | Examples |
|---|
| OpenAI | openai/gpt-4o-mini, openai/gpt-4o, openai/o1-mini |
| Anthropic | anthropic/claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022, anthropic/claude-3-opus-20240229 |
| Google | google/gemini-1.5-pro, google/gemini-2.0-flash |
| DeepSeek | deepseek/deepseek-chat, deepseek/deepseek-reasoner |
| Groq | groq/llama-3.3-70b-versatile |
| Ollama | ollama/llama3.2, ollama/mistral |
Memory Options
| Option | Description |
|---|
| Simple | Toggle memory on/off |
| Provider | rag or mem0 |
| Config | Full MemoryConfig dictionary (advanced) |
Structured Output
Define JSON schemas for structured responses:
{
"title": "string",
"score": "int",
"summary": "string",
"approved": "bool"
}
The agent will return data matching this schema.
Workflow Branching
Use decision tasks for conditional flows:
- Set Task Type to
decision
- Define Condition:
{
"approved": ["process_task"],
"rejected": ["review_task"]
}
- The agent’s decision determines which task runs next
Agent Collaboration
Use Handoffs for agent-to-agent collaboration:
- Create a second agent (e.g., “Expert Agent”)
- Connect it to the first agent’s Handoffs input
- The primary agent can now hand off conversations
