does a workflow count as a single worker invocation for the purpose of worker sub requests?

Levi•8/29/25, 4:03 PM

I'm retrieving topK from KV in one step, and returning it as state to use in the next step. When I return topK from the step where I retrieve it, the type is number. When I try to use it in the next step where I query a vectorize database, it's a string. So, it seems like it serializes my number as a string between steps. Is that intended behavior?

The vectorize query requires topK be a number and I thought I was passing it a number.

Hello everyone, hope all is well and happy Monday!

I'm seeing odd "run" errors in our worker logs, but they're not very descriptive and very hard to fix. Has anyone ever seen these before, or is my built just so bad?

Thanks,

I have a step that I'm using to process a CSV file and return the contents. The limit for a returned step value is only 1MiB.

Any ideas on how to get around this? The limit is so low, I assume I'm using the steps incorrectly? I'm parsing a CSV into ~10,000 "contact" objects and returning that from the step.

James•9/5/25, 8:55 PM

What's the expected behaviour if you try to create two workflows with the same instance id in quick succession? When testing this locally with

wrangler dev

wrangler dev

it seems the second request is silently dropped, no error is raised but based on log output I can only observe one instance of the workflow being started.

I'm considering triggering a workflow from a queue and wondering if I need to put in additional protection to prevent duplicate workflow creation requests in the case of a message being delivered more than once by the queue. Can I rely on CF to ensure only one workflow gets triggered per instance id?

Yeah, CF queues. My understanding was it's at least once delivery so there's always a chance of duplicate deliveries from the queue to a consumer regardless of any ack timeouts.

Anes•9/6/25, 2:45 PM

Workflows only allow you to keep state that’s returned from steps. Any call to a Durable Object (or other async call) has to happen inside a step.do(), otherwise even if it works locally in wrangler dev it fails in production.

Here’s the corrected version:

const portalResponse = await step.do('get-portal-response', async () => {
  const portal = this.env.PORTAL.getByName(portalIdString);
  return await portal.test();
});

const portalResponse = await step.do('get-portal-response', async () => {
  const portal = this.env.PORTAL.getByName(portalIdString);
  return await portal.test();
});

const portalResponse = await step.do('get-portal-response', async () => {
  const portal = this.env.PORTAL.getByName(portalIdString);
  return await portal.test();
});

const portalResponse = await step.do('get-portal-response', async () => {
  const portal = this.env.PORTAL.getByName(portalIdString);
  return await portal.test();
});

Cloudflare Docs

Rules of Workflows

A Workflow contains one or more steps. Each step is a self-contained, individually retriable component of a Workflow. Steps may emit (optional) state that allows a Workflow to persist and continue from that step, even if a Workflow fails due to a network or infrastructure issue.

Thanks for the reply, that is initially how I had my workflow set up to call the DO from inside a step but it still fails like that also.

I tried your version exactly and still get an error response from the step, e.g:

internal error; reference = 4t7lk8kksul8hag46prmnndt

internal error; reference = 4t7lk8kksul8hag46prmnndt

internal error; reference = 4t7lk8kksul8hag46prmnndt

R

rbravo•9/8/25, 11:40 PM

@Matt @mia here's my use case for more context:

Let's say that I want to send a marketing campaign with messages for 10k+ users. And I'd like these messases to have a random interval between then within a fixed limit (e.g 10s to 120s).

The way I'm creating this now is that for each message I schedule a workflow run.

In the docs it's mentioned that "Concurrent Workflow instances (executions) per account" has a limit for 4500, I believe this is the main one that I need to be increased.

For workflows creation and deletion (let's say that the user has pressed a "Cancel campaign" button) I'm receiving a bunch of 429, but that probably a skilll issue on my part and an exponential backoff should fix it...

I'd appreciate any recs. Thank you!

_matt_•9/9/25, 5:22 PM

I have a workflow step that calls a container-based worker and it sometimes takes >4.5minutes (270 seconds). It seems the Durable Object that is managing the workflow times out and so the step fails.

If I had access to the DO I believe I could use

But when I call this last line:

const new_status = await stub.status()
                console.log(
                    `[drainWaiting] New status for ${waiting.instance_id} after sending event: ${new_status.status}`

const new_status = await stub.status()
                console.log(
                    `[drainWaiting] New status for ${waiting.instance_id} after sending event: ${new_status.status}`
                )

const new_status = await stub.status()

                    `[drainWaiting] New status for ${waiting.instance_id} after sending event: ${new_status.status}`
                )

I see that the new status is still 'waiting'

Did you manage to fix this @Ben?

I have half a mind to just:

let status = waiting
let attempts = 0

while (status === waiting) {
  await stub.sendEvent
  status = await stub.status
  attempts++
}

console.log("Finally lol")

let status = waiting
let attempts = 0

while (status === waiting) {
  await stub.sendEvent
  status = await stub.status
  attempts++
}

console.log("Finally lol")

let status = waiting
let attempts = 0

while (status === waiting) {
  await stub.sendEvent
  status = await stub.status
  attempts++
}

console.log("Finally lol")

let status = waiting
let attempts = 0

while (status === waiting) {
  await stub.sendEvent
  status = await stub.status
  attempts++
}

console.log("Finally lol")

After ~5 seconds on attempt #2 it's good

Is there any news on having singleton workflows / limiting a specifically workflow to concurrency of 1?

Hey folks, I’m just getting started with Workflows and ran into something while testing locally. I noticed that

instance.terminate()

instance.terminate()

instance.terminate()

instance.terminate() isn’t implemented in local dev. I figured restarting the server would clear everything, but even after a restart the workflow instance still seems to persist.

Does anyone know where the instance state is actually stored in local mode? And what’s the recommended way to create a new instance with the same ID if the previous one errored out and I want to retry with different input (since I can’t cancel or terminate locally)?

Hey there, I have a quick question about Workflow limits

From limits docs: https://developers.cloudflare.com/workflows/reference/limits/

Concurrent Workflow instances (executions) per account: 4500
Maximum number of queued instances: 100,000

For queued instances, the description is: "the Workflow is queued, but not currently running. This can happen when you are at the concurrency limit and new instances are waiting for currently running instances to complete."

Question: Does a workflow that is currently in a "Sleep" step count as being active/concurrent? Queued? Something else?

Usage: I'd like to make a workflow that creates a user, then waits for a few days to check if the user has signed in.
This will lead to many "active" workflows that are mostly on a "sleep" step, and I can't work out from the docs if I'm going to run into limit issues or not.

Ty!

By default, running

wrangler dev

will create a

.wrangler/state

.wrangler/state

.wrangler/state

.wrangler/state directory where the command was run. You can also change this if you'd like!

Hey,

terminate()

terminate()

terminate()

terminate() is intended to terminate the instance, and although it is not supported yet in dev, it still wouldn't clear the workflow instance state.
Under

.wrangler/state/workflows

.wrangler/state/workflows

.wrangler/state/workflows

.wrangler/state/workflows there will be 3 storage files (.sqlite, .sqllite-wal and .sqlite-shm) for each created workflow (the file names are not related to the workflow instance ids, so it is complicated to know which ones to delete). If you really want to run a workflow instance with the id equal to one that already ran, your best option is to delete the files under that directory and re-run the workflow instance.

hi folks, I had cronjob which takes more than 15 minutes so I refactored to workflow as there is no duration limit for steps. I was triggering workflow creation inside cronjob. But then I stuck at "too many subrequests". I send about 3k request to an api. In this case what should I do, did you have any problem like this ?

Matt Silverlock•9/15/25, 1:43 PM

Batch those requests into separate Workflow instance runs - e.g. instead of 3000 in one, fire off 3-4 workflows that each handle < 1000 requests to that API (https://developers.cloudflare.com/workflows/reference/limits/).

Ah amazing, I run around 2 million workflows a month, and have more to add

, but since they use external services I need to rate limit them

Found a bug in making workflows. Despite the docs saying you can't, you can make workflows with ids beyond 64 characters and outside of the regex listed https://developers.cloudflare.com/workflows/reference/limits/

Hey, I wondered if you knew if it was possible to increase the memory limit of a workflow step? Please

I've requested via the form but not heard back.

My context is I'm processing data for my customers which can range from a few KB to a 400MB json blob.
At the moment I'm using streams to get this into R2 and some processing to reduce down the total size here.
However I then need to do a load of comparisons between this and another data set. I've tried not loading into memory and streaming but then just means I hit CPU limits when using streams rather than memory

We currently cannot increase those limits. We are working on it though.
