YI hope ?
MYou still have a daily limit on total invocations (it's a free plan). 50 subrequests per Workflow instance is still a fair few.
YIt's 100 invocations per day right. I need to process 50~200 documents at max so maybe send them in a batch of 25-40 to other workflows
MIt’s 100,000 per day (see the docs I linked)
YNice 
YCan I call the worker's endpoint from the workflow in the same application? How do I use service binding in the same worker.
Does using a service binding like this, I can avoid reaching 50 subrequests limit ?

PKeen to understand what kind of limit is envisioned longer term for "Concurrent Workflow instances" if anyone from CF can speak to that?
Oi don't mean to be rude in any way, but is there any ETA on the ghost executions? i really find workflows to be the best thing for my usecase, but i can't use them if a certain amount of executions just get killed and not even retried
Oor if there is anything on my side that i can do to resolve the issue i'd be happy to do so
MFor Paid: ballpark 1k-5k per Workflow.
DWe are aware of such phenomenon and we are actively working on a fix. Since last week, the chance of getting a ghost execution should have reduced significantly. Further, we are currently testing mechanisms for the system to evict ghost instances. More updates will arrive soon.
OThank you so much!
PThanks good to know - Out of interest, when I look at the DO API, I don't immediately see why it would not be unlimited eventually? Curious what the constraints are
MWe’re still assessing limits. Workflows isn’t just a single DO - we’re doing all of the orchestration, metrics, etc.
Tcan i write workflows in rust
MNot yet. Something we want to land closer to the GA. Focusing on the foundations first.
Tgotcha, good luck ^^
DAre there any updates on getting the Workflow return value through the binding, or Is that on the roadmap?
Adding the Cloudflare API SDK just to get the workflow return value seems to be a bit too much.
I currently have to do a workaround by adding an additional unnecessary step to the end of my workflows, just so I can access the value from the

InstanceStatus output property, which only contains an array with the individual step outputs.
MWhat do you consider the "return" value here? Steps return values. The

DIn the Cloudflare API "Get Logs And Status From Instance" endpoint, the workflow output is also returned separately from the "steps" results. But confusingly, the
output property of the Binding InstanceStatus contains the step results, not the workflow output.
MNot quite - something we're iterating on, specifically because returning a single (size limited) string can be confusing here.
Dhmm okay, from my testing the type of the API docs are wrong. It does indeed return an object value
SBut confusingly, the output property of the Binding InstanceStatus contains the step results, not the workflow output.
You mean in local dev, right? what's the behaviour on a real workflow?
Dhmm it seems like you are right! I just tested it again with my deployed workflow and I do indeed get the workflow output there.
Ssorry about that 
it should be an unknown there - i'll look into it but I think it's an openapi 3.0 limitation

Previously, in local dev, the output field would return the list of successful steps outputs in the workflow. This is not expected behavior compared to production workflows (where the output is the...
Dthat was quick looking forward to it! Good idea to keep the step outputs available for debugging locally

AAny updates or issues I can subscribe/follow to, to track progress on this?
Aseems like there might be some sort of outage? when i create new workflows, they have no steps, and when I try to pause or terminate the instances in the dashboard, those API calls return 500 errors like:
Athey also all have a start time of "pending"
Aoh wait - i think i'm running up against the 100 concurrency limit 
Ai would have assumed that workflows that aren't actually running (and are just sleeping) would not count towards the 100 concurrency limit...?
Ahow long is "eventually"? I'm seeing many instances, whose first step is a simple
await step.sleep('wait 24 hours', '24 hours'), which have been stuck in the "running" phase for many hours (30+)Athis is apparently deadlocking my whole account, since these instances which should be
Waiting are actually Running, and counting towards the 100 concurrency limit
Sif you can send me your account id, workflow name and instance id I can look it up
Supdate your
@cloudflare/worker-types and should be on WorkflowEvent.instanceId SFYI y'all, we've bumped step limits again to 1024 
Athanks for your help! if you look at this one, the instance has been stuck in the "running" status for >24 hours
Awhen it should actually be Waiting state
Athis is a serious issue for us because it's causing us to hit the 100 concurrency limit
Awe're actually rebuilding our own task system outside of workflows because it's so broken 
SYou can try to terminate those hanging ones, to free up space - feel free to send any instance thats stuck to my dms (to not clog up this chat)

WHowdy all, I'm trying about workflow and saw this doc to running it locally, https://developers.cloudflare.com/workflows/build/local-development/, is there a way for me to test out the workflow? I know that
npx wrangler workflow targets production api. Do I need to setup a local worker to call my local workflow?Cloudflare Docs
Workflows support local development using Wrangler, the command-line interface for Workers. Wrangler runs an emulated version of Workflows compared to the one that Cloudflare runs globally.
MThe doc you linked shows the steps: https://developers.cloudflare.com/workflows/build/local-development/#start-a-local-development-session

FIs there a way to delete workflows on our accounts? I can’t seem to find it either in the dashboard or api
