# Connect Langflow to WeCom (internal app)

Source: https://langbot.app/docs/en/recipes/langflow/wecom

Step-by-step guide to running your Langflow app as a WeCom (internal app) bot with LangBot: Langflow setup, bot credentials, networking, testing and troubleshooting.

This recipe puts your Langflow app behind a WeCom (internal app) bot. LangBot receives messages from WeCom (internal app), runs them through a pipeline, and sends the answer back, so you do not write any platform code.

Langflow builds agents and flows with a drag-and-drop editor. LangBot runs a flow through the Langflow API for every message.

## What you need

- A running LangBot instance: [LangBot Cloud](https://space.langbot.app/cloud) (no server needed) or a [self-hosted deployment](https://langbot.app/docs/en/deploy/langbot/docker.md) with Docker or `uvx langbot`.
- A Langflow account or instance that LangBot can reach over the network.
- A WeCom self-built app: **Corporate ID**, the app **Secret**, the **Contact Sync Secret**, and the callback **Token** and **EncodingAESKey**.

## Networking

WeCom delivers messages to a callback URL, so LangBot needs a public domain with HTTPS (see [reverse proxy and SSL](https://langbot.app/docs/en/workshop/production/proxy-and-ssl.md)). LangBot Cloud includes a ready-to-use public URL.

## 1. Prepare Langflow

1. Build a flow in Langflow (the Simple Agent template is a good start).
2. Create an API key under **Settings**.
3. Copy the **Flow ID** from **Share → API access**.

## 2. Create a pipeline

Open **Pipelines** in the LangBot WebUI, create a pipeline (or edit the default one) and set **AI** as follows. If the runner is not listed, install the official runner plugin from **Plugins** or the [LangBot Space marketplace](https://space.langbot.app/market).

| Field    | Value                                                |
| -------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| Runner   | **Langflow** (official Langflow Agent runner plugin) |
| Base URL | Your Langflow address, reachable from LangBot        |
| API Key  | The Langflow API key                                 |
| Flow ID  | The flow to run                                      |

## 3. Create the WeCom (internal app) bot

1. Create a bot with the **WeCom** adapter, enter the Corporate ID, app Secret and Contact Sync Secret, enable it and copy the webhook callback URL.
2. In the WeCom admin console, open **Receive Messages → Set API Reception**, paste the URL, generate the Token and EncodingAESKey, save them in LangBot first and then in WeCom. Add LangBot's outbound IP to **Corporate Trusted IP**.

## 4. Bind and test

Open the bot, select the pipeline you created, save and make sure the bot is enabled.

Open the app in the WeCom client and send it a message.

## Troubleshooting

- Connection refused: `http://localhost:7860` only works when Langflow runs on the same host and network namespace as LangBot.
- **request URL failed** when saving the callback: the URL is not publicly reachable over HTTPS, or the Token/EncodingAESKey in LangBot does not match.
- Replies fail to send: add LangBot's outbound IP to the corporate trusted IP list.
- Check **Monitoring** in the WebUI: every message, pipeline run and error is recorded there.

## FAQ

### Do I need a server with a public IP for WeCom (internal app)?

Yes, or use LangBot Cloud. WeCom delivers messages to a callback URL, so LangBot needs a public domain with HTTPS (see [reverse proxy and SSL](https://langbot.app/docs/en/workshop/production/proxy-and-ssl.md)). LangBot Cloud includes a ready-to-use public URL.

### Does the WeCom (internal app) bot support streaming replies?

Check the [platform feature matrix](https://langbot.app/docs/en/insight/platform-features.md) for what this platform supports. Replies are delivered once the AI back end has finished.

### Can the same Langflow setup serve other platforms too?

Yes. A pipeline can be bound to many bots, so one configuration can answer on several platforms at once.
