Use case
Automated report drafting with Claude
Updated September 17, 2026
Weekly numbers are easy to fetch and tedious to write up. This workflow pulls metrics from your API, trims them to what matters, and has Claude draft the summary you would have written.
How the workflow runs
- The trigger sets the reporting period.
- An HTTP Request node fetches metrics for that period.
- A Set node keeps only the fields the report needs, so the prompt stays short and cheap.
- A draft agent writes the report, and the Output node returns it.
The drafting prompt
Write a short weekly report for {{ trigger.period }}.
Lead with the biggest change, then three bullet points.
