## Syntax

```javascript
executeFlow(config)
```

## Description

Executes a target Flow starting from a specified Entrypoint Node. The behavior is controlled by `config.flowNode.isGoto`:

- `false` – the target Flow runs temporarily, then returns to the current Flow.
- `true` – the target Flow runs permanently and doesn’t return to the current Flow. For this behavior, you must call [`resetNextNodes()`](https://docs.cognigy.com/ai/for-developers/function-reference/execution-control/resetNextNodes) before calling `executeFlow()`.

Only Nodes marked as Entrypoint in the target Flow can be used.**Parameters:**

- `config`: `IExecuteFlowNodeConfig` — the `IExecuteFlowNodeConfig` configuration object that specifies the configuration for the Flow execution.

### IExecuteFlowNodeConfig Object Structure

```typescript
interface IExecuteFlowNodeConfig {
    flowNode: {
        flow: string;
        node: string;
        isGoto?: boolean;
    };
    parseIntents?: boolean;
    parseKeyphrases?: boolean;
    absorbContext?: boolean;
}
```

**Returns:** `Promise<void>`

## Example

- Permanent Switch (`isGoto = true`)

```
Current Flow → executeFlow(target Flow) → switches → target Flow continues (no return)
```

```
resetNextNodes();         // Call this function to make sure `isGoto: true` is applied
await executeFlow({
  flowNode: {
    flow: "support-flow",     // The ID of the target Flow
    node: "node-id",          // The ID of the Entrypoint Node
    isGoto: true              // Keep execution in the target Flow
  },
  parseIntents: true,         // Enable intent parsing in the target Flow
  parseKeyphrases: false,     // Disable keyphrase parsing
  absorbContext: true         // Absorb context from the target Flow
});
```

- Temporary Run (`isGoto = false`)

```
Current Flow → executeFlow(target Flow) → returns → Current Flow continues
```

```
await executeFlow({
  flowNode: {
    flow: "support-flow",     // The ID of the target Flow
    node: "node-id",          // The ID of the Entrypoint Node
    isGoto: false             // Return to this Flow after execution
  },
  parseIntents: true,         // Enable intent parsing in the target Flow
  parseKeyphrases: false,     // Disable keyphrase parsing
  absorbContext: true         // Absorb context from the target Flow
});
```
