Currently, Semarchy xDM does not support calling or triggering one workflow directly from within another workflow. This means you cannot nest workflows or have a workflow step that launches a separate, pre-defined workflow as part of its execution

The supported methods for triggering workflows are:

Manually starting a workflow from the application interface.

Configuring actions in the Application Builder to trigger workflows.

Programmatically starting workflows via the REST API.

However, these triggers are always external to the workflow itself; there is no built-in feature to invoke a workflow from a step within another workflow3.

If you need to reuse workflow logic, consider:

Refactoring common steps into automations or user tasks that can be replicated in multiple workflows.

Using external automation (such as scripts or integration tools) to orchestrate multiple workflows if necessary.

This limitation has been acknowledged in Semarchy’s support forums, and as of now, direct workflow-to-workflow invocation is not available.
