This page summarizes the 26.1 wave for Flows for APEX Enterprise Edition, including new runtime flexibility, AI-driven orchestration, async execution support, and developer tooling improvements.
New in Enterprise Edition for 26.1
Adhoc Sub Processes
Give knowledge workers controlled flexibility by letting them choose the next relevant action at runtime while BPMN still defines the guardrails and completion rules.
AI-Driven BPMN Agents
Move from recommendations to hybrid or fully autonomous BPMN-defined agents while keeping workflow behavior auditable and governed.
Async Workflow Execution
Push selected long-running work into background async execution for better resilience, improved user experience, and safer orchestration of external services or AI calls.
AI-Powered Development Support Toolkit
This release includes XSD definition of Flows for APEX BPMN extensions, read-only MCP schema scripts, and Flows for APEX skill definitions to accelerate consistent AI-powered workflow development across teams.
Developer Improvements
Use declarative task subjects, task parameters and JSONPath variable expressions to define cleaner task contracts, simpler data mapping, and more maintainable process applications.
Autoforms
UserTask Autoform and Start Event Autoform will auto-create input forms so that analysts can create simple data collection forms declaratively without APEX development skills.
