On Demand Workflow

When to Use: Use an On-Demand Workflow when you want to run a process manually whenever you need it. It’s best for one-time actions, testing, or checking something quickly without setting up any schedule or trigger. You’re fully in control — the workflow only runs when you start it.

• Run a workflow manually to check the health of your cluster after making updates.
• Redeploy an application on demand when a new version is ready.
• Generate a quick cost report before closing your billing cycle.
