# Flows quickstart

> Prepare your first Flow integration and understand the platform preview.

## Before you begin

[Join the waitlist](https://form.typeform.com/to/exWUquA1) and use the integration instructions supplied when you receive access.

The public platform is a preview. You can explore the workflow now, but sample keys, sessions, and responses do not provide live access.

## Explore a Flow

<Steps>
  <Step title="Choose a site">
    Open the [Flows catalog preview](https://getschema.app/platform/flows) and choose a site relevant to your task.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Read its capabilities">
    Review the Flow's context, available functions, accepted arguments, and return types. Check whether the site requires sign-in.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Inspect a sample call">
    Choose a function and review its sample arguments and response. The preview's playground displays sample results; it does not execute the task on the website.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Plan your integration">
    Decide which functions your agent needs, where to handle returned data, and how to respond to errors.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Make your first live call after access

Use the endpoint, authentication instructions, and function definitions provided with your access. Begin with a read-only lookup whose result you can check, such as a search.

Confirm the required fields before sending the request. If it succeeds, check the returned values and use identifiers from that response in any follow-up call. If it fails, inspect the error code and request ID.

## Next steps

* [Functions and results](/flows/functions): understand inputs and outputs.
* [Sessions and sign-in](/flows/sessions): work with websites that require an account.
* [Agent integrations](/flows/integrations): connect Flows to your agent.
* [Errors](/flows/errors): decide what to do when a call fails.
