Integrating with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway, AI agents decide when to run Step Functions workflows and pass inputs, enabling automation of established sequences like refund processing with eligibility checks, approvals, and credits. This ensures business logic runs exactly as designed each time, improving consistency for AI-driven tasks.
Agents also can query workflow run histories to diagnose operational issues, guiding human responders to problem areas. This capability unlocks orchestration of over 220 AWS services in multi-step workflows, supporting complex AI-driven automation across AWS environments.
