Struggling to create and share custom AI workflows? Google’s Super Gems feature, now in beta from Google Labs, offers a revolutionary solution for developers and business users alike. This no-code platform empowers you to build sophisticated AI agents using the Opal integration, automate repetitive tasks, and instantly share workflows with teams. Whether you’re a seasoned developer or a business analyst, this guide will walk you through building your first AI workflow with step-by-step instructions and real-world examples.

Understanding Google Super Gems and Opal Integration

Super Gems is Google’s latest innovation for AI workflow automation, combining the power of Gemini Pro with an intuitive visual builder. The platform’s core strength lies in its Opal integration—a no-code framework that connects AI models, APIs, and business logic into seamless workflows. As of November 2025, Super Gems supports workflow creation for data processing, customer service automation, and enterprise task management.

Key features include:

  • Visual workflow designer with drag-and-drop components
  • Pre-built templates for common business scenarios
  • Real-time collaboration and version control
  • One-click deployment and sharing capabilities

Setting Up Your First Super Gems Workflow

Before building workflows, ensure you have:

  • A Google Cloud account with Super Gems access
  • Basic understanding of your business process requirements
  • API keys for any external services you’ll integrate

Step 1: Choose a Workflow Template

1. Log into the Super Gems console at supergems.googlelabs.com
2. Click “New Workflow” and browse the template gallery
3. Select “Customer Support Ticket Automation” for this example

Step 2: Configure Workflow Components

The workflow builder interface contains three main sections:

  • Left Panel: Available components (triggers, AI actions, connectors)
  • Center Canvas: Visual workflow builder area
  • Right Panel: Configuration settings for selected components

Building Your AI Workflow with Opal Integration

Let’s create a workflow that automatically categorizes support tickets and assigns them to appropriate teams:

  1. Add a “Form Submission” trigger component
  2. Connect it to a “Gemini Text Analysis” action for ticket categorization
  3. Use a “Conditional Router” to direct tickets by category
  4. Add “Slack Notification” actions for each team assignment
  5. Finish with a “Data Storage” component for record-keeping

Configuring AI Components

Click the Gemini Text Analysis component to configure:

// Sample prompt template for ticket analysis
{
  "prompt": "Categorize this support ticket: {ticket_text}\nCategories: Technical, Billing, Account Management, General Inquiry",
  "temperature": 0.2,
  "max_tokens": 100
}

Testing and Refining Your Workflow

Use the built-in testing tools to validate your workflow:

  1. Click the “Test” button in the top toolbar
  2. Input sample ticket text: “I’m unable to log into my account after password reset”
  3. Verify the AI categorizes it as “Account Management”
  4. Check that the correct Slack channel receives the notification

Common issues to troubleshoot:

  • API connection errors (verify credentials in component settings)
  • AI response formatting (adjust prompt templates)
  • Conditional routing logic (test edge cases)

Sharing and Deploying Workflows

Once tested, deploy your workflow with these options:

  • Share Link: Generate a secure URL for team access
  • Embed Code: Integrate workflow interface into internal portals
  • API Endpoint: Connect to existing enterprise systems
