Requirements and Design Document Drafting for Independent Innovation Replacement Adaptation: Workflow Orchestration

What the data for this category looks like

Daily documents for this category include four types: adaptation inventory, compatibility test reports, migration plans, and issue ledgers. They typically contain fields such as system identification, original software and hardware versions, alternative candidate lists, compatibility verification results, and risk assessment items. Data sources cover existing enterprise system inventories, official directories of domestic software and hardware, test environment records, and manufacturer public materials. The update rhythm proceeds per individual project or is synchronized once per quarter. There are no fixed unified field units, and adjustments must be made based on specific verification scenarios.

What constraints these characteristics impose on workflow orchestration

Data sources for this category are scattered and have diverse structures. Workflows must support parallel pulling of information from different data sources across multiple nodes, while adapting to different input and output formats of the four document types. The update rhythm per project or quarter requires workflows to flexibly adjust parameters and node order to adapt to phased adaptation tasks. Since errors may cause business systems to become unavailable, workflows must be configured with clear failure handling nodes and verification logic to avoid overall adaptation progress being affected by abnormalities in a single link. Additionally, the lack of fixed unified field units requires workflows to support custom field mapping to adapt to document specifications for different projects.

How to set configurations

Configuration ItemRecommended SettingRationale
Workflow trigger modeTrigger upon completion of project nodesAdapt to the document rhythm updated in project phases
Variable call scopeProject parameters within variables and App/Admin server deployment environment variablesComplies with official configuration requirements. AI Proxy administrator Token must not be used as an application authentication key, and AI Proxy-related environment variables must not be configured in workflow global variables
Node timeout threshold600–1200 secondsAdapts to the reasonable time interval for multi-source data pulling and compatibility verification
Failure retry count2–3 timesAddresses occasional connection fluctuations and data pulling delays in test environments
Node ID bindingBind nodeId to exclusive workflow nodesFacilitates locating specific workflow links corresponding to adaptation documents
Document field verificationEnable required item verification based on preset document structureEnsures generated adaptation documents comply with enterprise specifications

Three common mistakes

  • Symptom: Workflow nodes return "Missing parameter" error. Troubleshooting items: Failed to correctly bind project-specific parameters within variables; or misused AI Proxy administrator Token as an application authentication key; or failed to configure required AI Proxy-related environment variables on the App/Admin server, resulting in startup verification issues
  • Symptom: Workflow execution times out with no results. Troubleshooting items: Failed to set a reasonable timeout threshold, failed to configure failure retry nodes
  • Symptom: Generated adaptation documents have missing fields or disorganized formatting. Troubleshooting items: Failed to configure node input and output based on preset document structure, failed to enable required field verification logic

How to confirm the configuration is correct

  • Check the environment variable configuration on the App/Admin server, confirm that AIPROXY_API_ENDPOINT (AI Proxy service root address) and AIPROXY_API_TOKEN (AI Proxy administrator Token) are correctly set and non-empty, and meet the deployment requirements for FastGPT v4.17.0 and later versions.
  • Trigger the workflow test node to verify that project parameters within variables can be called normally.
  • View workflow node logs to confirm that the timeout threshold and retry count match the preset configuration.
  • Export the draft adaptation document generated by the workflow and check that the fields match the preset document structure.
