# Workflows

Manage and configure [Workflows](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workflows/) using Wrangler.

Note

The `wrangler workflows` command requires Wrangler version `3.83.0` or greater. Use `npx wrangler@latest` to always use the latest Wrangler version when invoking commands.

`--local` option

All `wrangler workflows` commands support the `--local` flag to target a Workflow running in a local [wrangler dev](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/wrangler/commands/general/#dev) session instead of production. Use `--port` to specify the port of the dev session (defaults to `8787`).

The `--local` flag requires Wrangler version `4.79.0` or greater.

For more information, refer to [Workflows local development](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workflows/build/local-development/).
