Run Your First Workflow

Easily create and design your first workflow

Using Workflows is intuitive and powerful. If you're new to node-based AI design, here are some quick tips:


Option 1: Start with Presets on Canvas

Presets are a quickest way to get started without having to manually add each node. These pre-configured presets cover common tasks and streamline your workflow.

You can use them as-is or modify them to match your unique use case. Presets help you leverage the power of ImagineArt Workflow capabilities without needing to know the technical details. Here’s how you can use them:

Step 1: Select a Preset

On your blank canvas, you’ll see placeholder options like Get Prompt Ideas, Animate Image, Merge Styles, Edit Image, etc. These presets are designed to handle specific use cases with minimal effort.

  • Click on a Preset: When you click on any preset, it automatically adds the required nodes to the canvas, pre-configured and ready to go.

Step 2: Customize the Preset

Once the preset is loaded into the canvas, you can customize it to fit your needs:

  • Update the Prompt Node: In case the preset requires a specific prompt (e.g., for animating an image or generating art), modify the prompt text within the Prompt Node.

  • Replace Input Image: For image-related presets (like Animate Image or Edit Image), click on the Input Image Node and upload your image.

Step 3: Run the Workflow

Once you customize preset inputs:

  • Click the Run → button in the node, or in the right panel under node settings.

  • Alternatively, select all nodes and press Ctrl/Cmd + Enter to run the entire workflow.

Your content will automatically be generated in the corresponding image or video node, based on the preset you've chosen.


The 2nd fastest way to get started is using our curated workflows.

Step 1: Choose a Workflow

Browse featured workflows on dashboard designed for common use cases:

  • Ad Placement

  • Product Photoshoot

  • Photo Composer

  • Camera Angle Ideation

  • Virtual Try on

Step 2: Duplicate Workflow

Click on any workflow to load and duplicate it. All nodes and models are pre-configured and ready to use.

You only need to:

  1. Update the prompt in the Prompt node

  2. Or upload/replace an image in the Import node (if the workflow requires input)

Step 3: Run the Workflow

If everything is loaded correctly, click the Run → button in the node or in right panel of node settings or select all and press Ctrl/Cmd + Enter

Your generated content will appear in the image/video node on the canvas, depending on the workflow you're running.


Option 3: Build From Scratch

For complete creative control, start with a blank canvas.

Step 1: Open Blank Canvas

  • Click on Create new workflow in the dashboard

Step 2: Add Your First Node

  • Press double-click anywhere on the canvas.

  • Alternatively, click the + button in the left panel to add the required nodes (Text, Prompt, Image, or Video).

  • For a quick search, press Cmd + K and search for any node (e.g., “Image”, “Video”, “Prompt”), or search by AI model name (e.g., “Veo 3”, “Nano Banana”).

Step 3: Add Required Input Nodes

  1. Click on the visible node to add it to the canvas (e.g., Text or Image node). Write your prompt in it.

  2. Connect the Text or Prompt node to the Image or Video node, depending on your setup.

Step 4: Generate

  • Click Run → and watch your creation appear in real time.
