AI Agent Integration Guide

Learn the seven ways to integrate AI Agents into your business processes.

Updated yesterday

Yeeflow AI Agents can be reused across multiple system scenarios, supporting cross-workflow, cross-tool, and cross-platform automation. This guide introduces 8 integration methods for AI Agents, explaining their purpose and how they can be used across systems (steps provided only where applicable).

1. Calling an AI Agent Inside Another AI Agent (Run an Agent)

“Run an Agent” allows one AI Agent to call another, enabling a collaborative, multi-agent architecture.
The primary agent handles the overall logic, while the secondary agent performs domain-specific tasks.

Typical scenarios include:

  • Breaking down complex tasks (e.g., contract → risk → clause extraction)

  • Modularizing AI capabilities for better maintainability

  • Cross-domain collaboration (inventory + procurement + supply chain)

  • Reusing existing agents for summarization, extraction, or classification

This capability is the foundation of multi-agent systems.

How to Use

  1. Open the primary AI Agent

  2. Go to Tools

  3. Click Add a tool → Run an agent

  4. Select the secondary AI Agent to be called

  5. Configure Input Mapping (AI dynamic fill, variables, or fixed values)

  6. Configure Completion Settings (wait for response or not)

  7. Save and publish


2. Calling an AI Agent in an Approval Form (Form Action)

Approval Forms can invoke AI Agents during form submission, allowing AI to automatically analyze content and generate decisions.

Typical scenarios include:

  • Auto-generating approval comments

  • Extracting structured fields (amount, date, project name)

  • Validating user inputs

  • Determining subsequent workflow routing

This gives forms “intelligent processing power,” reducing manual review.

How to Use

  1. Open the form designer

  2. Go to Actions

  3. Edit an existing action (e.g., Submit) or create a new one

  4. Click Add Step → AI assistant

  5. Set Event Type to Call AI agent

  6. Select the application and target AI Agent

  7. Configure Input (map form fields to AI variables)

  8. Configure Output (write AI results back to form fields)

  9. Save and publish

Calling an AI Agent in Workflow

AI Agents can be used as intelligent decision-making nodes in workflows.

They can:

  • Determine whether approval is required

  • Generate summaries, descriptions, or classifications

  • Validate or extract data

  • Control workflow paths based on AI results

This allows AI to participate directly in BPM logic.

How to Use

  1. Open the workflow designer

  2. Drag the AI assistant node into the canvas

  3. Set Event Type to Call AI agent

  4. Select the appropriate AI Agent

  5. Configure Input (map workflow variables to AI inputs)

  6. Configure Output (map AI outputs to workflow variables)

  7. Save and publish


3. Calling an AI Agent in Copilot (Copilot Management)

Yeeflow Copilot serves as the natural language interface for users.
When integrated with an AI Agent, users can trigger complex business actions simply by typing a request, such as:

  • “Show me products that are low in stock.”

  • “Summarize this contract.”

  • “Generate a justification for a purchase request.”

Copilot becomes the unified AI entry point across the organization.

How to Use

  1. Go to Application Settings → AI Agent → Copilot management

  2. Select an existing Copilot or create a new one

  3. Open the Tools tab

  4. Click Add a tool → Run an agent

  5. Select the target AI Agent

  6. Configure input and output

  7. Publish the Copilot

Users can now trigger the AI Agent through natural language.


4. Calling an AI Agent in Microsoft Power Automate

AI Agents can be used as intelligent processing steps in Power Automate, enabling cross-system automation with Outlook, Teams, SharePoint, and more.

Typical scenarios include:

  • Email summarization

  • Teams message interpretation

  • AI-based data extraction or validation

  • Returning AI-generated results into downstream actions


5. Calling an AI Agent in Microsoft Copilot Agent Flow

AI Agents can serve as enterprise intelligence sources for Microsoft Copilot, enabling Copilot to:

  • Query internal business data

  • Generate business-specific outputs

  • Trigger Yeeflow logic and return contextual results

This is key to building enterprise-grade, Copilot-powered workflows.


6. Calling an AI Agent in Zapier Automations

Zapier connects thousands of SaaS tools, enabling AI Agents to act as intelligent processing steps in multi-system workflows.

Example scenarios:

  • Google Forms → AI extraction → Write to Yeeflow

  • HubSpot lead creation → AI scoring → Sales follow-up

  • Shopify order changes → AI risk assessment → Notify team


7. Calling an AI Agent via REST API

REST API provides the highest flexibility, enabling AI Agents to be embedded into any system, including:

  • ERP / CRM / HR systems

  • Internal custom platforms

  • Enterprise portals

  • AI orchestration platforms

This is ideal for deep system integration and enterprise AI architectures.
