Subflow Use Case Examples

Subflows are useful when you want to implement a common runbook operation once and reuse it in multiple runbooks. Some examples of use cases for subflows are:

  • Create ServiceNow ticket.

  • Create a complex async query to Aternity remediation service.

  • Check whether a problem is server or network related.

  • Get a list of interfaces traversed by an app, with their actual utilization.

  • Parse Aternity webhook payload.

  • Display a time series with analysis (peak, outlier, etc.).

  • Get the top apps in the network.
