New features in detail
MCP integration
With the new MCP integration, workflows can be provided as tools via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This allows workflows to be controlled and executed directly by AI agents – an important step towards AI-supported automation.
You can find out more about how companies use AI in business processes in the article ‘How swoox.io makes business processes usable for AI agents via MCP’.
Overview of the MCP tools provided:
Making a workflow available as an MCP tool:
New design
The swoox.io user interface has been comprehensively modernised. A new color scheme, a redesigned login screen and a new navigation concept ensure a more consistent, clearer and more accessible user experience.
The new, dynamic navigation replaces the previous top menu and enables faster access to central functions. At the same time, it is prepared for future plugin extensions.
Workflow input/output validation & array types
Schema changes to outputs are now recognised and displayed in workflows. Users are notified when an output schema has changed
Schema changes to other outputs are now displayed in workflows and users are notified when an output schema has changed.
In addition, inputs and outputs in workflow tasks can now also contain the array type. This allows, for example, multiple values to be transferred simultaneously or lists of data to be processed – ideal for more complex workflows and automated processes.
Plugin Manager
Swoox.io can be flexibly expanded via a new plugin system. Plugins can be installed, managed, and enabled or disabled either via console commands or conveniently via the intuitive user interface.
Data protection & cleanup
Workflow logs can be managed directly in the interface. Personal data can be completely deleted, old or no longer needed logs can be removed, and faulty workflow messages (workflow_failed) can be specifically cleaned up – for greater security, clarity and compliance.
Next steps & feedback
We are continuously developing swoox.io. Upcoming features include:
- Loop function with sub-processes
