# Run your first Workflow
Using Workflows is intuitive and powerful. If you're new to node-based AI design, here are some quick tips to get started.
## Getting Started with Workflows
Using Workflows is intuitive and powerful. If you're new to node-based AI design, here are three ways to get started:
Use pre-configured presets for common tasks without manual setup.
Browse curated workflows designed for specific use cases.
Create custom workflows with complete creative control.
## Option 1: Start with Presets on Canvas
Presets are the quickest way to get started without manually adding each node. These pre-configured presets cover common tasks and streamline your workflow.
You can use them as-is or modify them to match your unique use case. Presets help you leverage the power of ImagineArt Workflow capabilities without needing to know the technical details. Here's how you can use them:
#### **Step 1: Select a Preset**
On your blank canvas, you'll see placeholder options like **Get Prompt Ideas**, **Animate Image**, **Merge Styles**, **Edit Image**, etc. These presets are designed to handle specific use cases with minimal effort.
* **Click on a Preset**: When you click on any preset, it automatically adds the required nodes to the canvas, pre-configured and ready to go.
#### **Step 2: Customize the Preset**
Once the preset is loaded into the canvas, you can customize it to fit your needs:
* **Update the Prompt Node**: In case the preset requires a specific prompt (e.g., for animating an image or generating art), modify the prompt text within the **Prompt Node**.
* **Replace Input Image**: For image-related presets (like **Animate Image** or **Edit Image**), click on the **Input Image Node** and upload your image.
#### **Step 3: Run the Workflow**
Once you customize preset inputs:
* **Click the Run →** button in the node, or in the right panel under node settings.
* Alternatively, **select all nodes** and press **Ctrl/Cmd + Enter** to run the entire workflow.
Your content will automatically be generated in the corresponding image or video node, based on the preset you've chosen.
## Option 2: Start from Featured Workflows
The second fastest way to get started is using our curated workflows.
#### **Step 1: Choose a Workflow**
Browse featured workflows on the dashboard designed for common use cases:
**Featured Workflows:**
* **Ad Placement**
* **Product Photoshoot**
* **Photo Composer**
* **Camera Angle Ideation**
* **Virtual Try on**
#### **Step 2: Duplicate Workflow**
Click on any workflow to load and duplicate it. All nodes and models are pre-configured and ready to use.
You only need to:
1. **Update the prompt** in the `Prompt` node
2. **Or upload/replace an image** in the `Import` node (if the workflow requires input)
#### **Step 3: Run the Workflow**
If everything is loaded correctly, click the **Run →** button in the node or in the right panel of node settings, or select all and press `Ctrl/Cmd + Enter`.
Your generated content will appear in the image/video node on the canvas, depending on the workflow you're running.
## Option 3: Build From Scratch
For complete creative control, start with a blank canvas.
#### **Step 1: Open Blank Canvas**
* Click on **Create new workflow** in the dashboard
#### **Step 2: Add Your First Node**
* Press `double-click` anywhere on the canvas.

* Alternatively, click the **+** button in the left panel to add the required nodes (Text, Prompt, Image, or Video).

* For a quick search, press **Cmd + K** and search for any node (e.g., "Image", "Video", "Prompt"), or search by AI model name (e.g., "Veo 3", "Nano Banana").
#### **Step 3: Add Required Input Nodes**
1. Click on the visible node to add it to the canvas (e.g., **Text** or **Image** node). Write your prompt in it.
2. Connect the Text or Prompt node to the Image or Video node, depending on your setup.
#### **Step 4: Generate**
* Click **Run →** and watch your creation appear in real time.
