# API workflow properties

API workflows are workflows that run on the server rather than in the browser. Unlike regular workflows, they aren't tied to a page or a user session, which means they can run in the background, be scheduled for a future time, or be triggered from outside your app entirely.

API workflows are described in the Workflow API section.
