# Manual Run

### Overview

The **Manual Run** trigger allows you to execute a workflow **on demand** with a single click. It is designed for testing, debugging, and ad-hoc executions where you want full control over when a workflow runs.

Unlike time-based or automated triggers, Manual Run only executes when explicitly initiated by the user.

***

### What Manual Run Does

Manual Run acts as a **user-initiated trigger** that starts the workflow instantly when clicked. It does not rely on schedules, events, or external conditions.

Key capabilities include:

* Instant workflow execution
* Safe testing of nodes and integrations
* On-demand execution without automation
* Ideal for development and debugging workflows

***

### How It Works

* The **Manual Run** node appears on the canvas as a trigger.
* Clicking the **Run** (play) button immediately starts the workflow.
* All connected nodes execute sequentially based on the workflow logic.
* No background or recurring execution occurs.

***

### Configuration Options

The Manual Run trigger requires **no configuration**.

There are:

* No time settings
* No repeat intervals
* No parameters

This simplicity ensures predictable, controlled executions, on-demand - directly from the canvas.

***

### Common Use Cases

* **Testing workflows before deployment**
* **Debugging smart contract interactions**
* **Triggering one-off blockchain transactions**
* **Running ad-hoc data reads or API calls**
* **Validating integrations and node outputs**

### Example Workflow

**Scenario:** Test a fund transfer workflow before scheduling it.

1. Use **Manual Run** as the trigger.
2. Connect wallet, set variables, and add a fund transfer node.
3. Click **Run** to execute instantly.
4. Review logs and results.
