Temporal Client

View Markdown

A Temporal Client allows you to communicate with the Temporal Service.

The most common operations that a Temporal Client allows you to perform are the following:

  • Start a Workflow Execution
  • Get the result of Workflow Execution
  • List Workflow Executions
  • Query a Workflow Execution
  • Signal a Workflow Execution
  • Start and manage Standalone Activities directly, without involving a Workflow
  • Start a Standalone Nexus Operation directly, without using a caller Workflow

A Standalone Activity is a top-level Activity Execution started directly by a Client, without using a Workflow. A Standalone Nexus Operation is a top-level Nexus Operation Execution started directly by a Client, without using a caller Workflow.
