# Run a workflow now

`POST /api/v1/workflows/{id}/runs`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://revnu.com`
- URL: `https://revnu.com/api/v1/workflows/{id}/runs`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Start a workflow's next run within about a minute, without changing its schedule.

Requires the `workflows:write` scope.

**Response.** `202 { "run": { id, status: "queued", startedAt }, "deduplicated": false }`. The run starts within about a minute and then shows in [`GET /workflows/{id}/runs`](/docs/workflow-runs) under the same `id`, moving from `queued` to `running` and then `done` or `failed`.

`deduplicated: true` means no new run was queued: the `clientRequestId` was seen before, or the workflow already has a run queued or running, and `run` is that one.

| Code | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 409 | `error` is `paused` (resume it first), `schedule_pending` (the schedule is still being set up, so retry shortly) or `schedule_error` (fix `scheduleText`). |

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required

## Request body

- object

## Response `202`
