# vf workflow create-block

> vf workflow create-block: create block. Requires --environment-alias, --name, --project-id, --steps and --workflow-id, with a worked example.

Create a block with its steps; the server places it.

## Usage

```bash
vf workflow create-block [flags]
```

## Examples

```bash
  vf workflow create-block --workflow-id <id> --project-id <id> --environment-alias <value> --name <value> --steps '[{"kind":"condition","content":{"items":[{"assertions":[{"lhs":{"variableID":"<id>"},"rhs":"<value>"}]}]} }]'
```

## Flags

```text
      --body string                Request body as JSON (alternative to individual flags). Can also be provided via stdin.
  -c, --color-param string         string value
  -e, --environment-alias string   [required]
  -f, --from string                Also link this port to the new block in the same call, with the same checks as voiceflow_workflow.link.
  -h, --help                       help for create-block
  -n, --name string                [required]
      --placement string           Place the new block to the right of this block. Without it, the block goes next to the block of from.stepID, or right of the right-most block.
      --project-id string          [required]
  -s, --steps string               [required]
  -w, --workflow-id string         [required]
```

## Global flags

These flags are inherited from the parent command and work on every invocation.

```text
      --agent-mode             Enable structured errors and default TOON output for AI coding agents. Automatically enabled when a known agent environment is detected (CLAUDE_CODE, CURSOR_AGENT, etc.). Use --agent-mode=false to disable.
      --color string           Control colored output: auto (color when output is a TTY), always, or never. Respects NO_COLOR and FORCE_COLOR env vars. (default "auto")
  -d, --debug                  Log request and response diagnostics to stderr
      --dry-run                Preview the request that would be sent without executing it (output to stderr)
  -H, --header stringArray     Set a custom HTTP request header (format: "Key: Value"). Can be specified multiple times.
      --include-headers        Include HTTP response headers in the output
  -q, --jq string              Filter and transform output using a jq expression (e.g., '.name', '.items[] | .id')
      --no-interactive         Disable all interactive features (auto-prompting, explorer auto-launch, TUI forms)
  -o, --output-format string   Specify the output format. Options: pretty, json, yaml, table, toon. (default "pretty")
      --server-url string      Override the default server URL
      --timeout string         HTTP request timeout (e.g., 30s, 5m, 100ms)
      --token string           Voiceflow bearer token
      --usage                  Print the CLI Usage schema in KDL format
