Workflow API-enabled implementation details
Cog-ComfyUI The key to transforming ComfyUI's visual workflows into programmable interfaces is the JSON configuration mechanism.
- Developer mode: special options must be enabled in ComfyUI settings to export API JSON
- Dual format support: workflow_api.json (pure data) or workflow_ui.json (with interface information) can be loaded.
- Parameter mapping: the parameters of each node in the workflow are converted to the corresponding fields of the API call
A typical API integration process includes: designing the workflow through the web interface → exporting the JSON configuration → modifying the input and output paths → initiating the API request. This approach retains the convenience of ComfyUI's visual design while providing the flexibility of programmatic invocation, and is an ideal solution for balancing development efficiency with operational efficiency.
