Call a hired employee with Duaer Employee
In Duaer, Duaer Employee calls an employee you hired on the employee market: send it a text or an item and get its output back. Each call costs the price its publisher set.
Call an employee
- Open Employee market › Hired and select Copy ID on the employee you want. That is the position ID.
- Search for Duaer Employee, connect it after the previous node, and paste the ID into Position ID.
- In Input, enter what the employee should work on. Text that starts with { and parses as a JSON object is sent as that object; anything else is sent as text.
- To hand the whole incoming item to the employee instead, turn on Send Item. Input then hides.
- Select Execute step. Duaer Employee outputs one item per item the employee returns. If the employee returns none, the output has runId and the credits charged.
Cost and limits
- Each call is charged to the workflow owner's AI credits at the price the employee's publisher set. Refer to Duaer plans and credits.
- An employee can call other employees with Duaer Employee, up to 3 levels deep; a deeper call is refused.
- Duaer Employee works as a tool for an AI Agent, so the agent decides when to ask this employee.
You can also call an employee outside a digital organization: Copy API call on the employee market gives a curl request. Replace $DUAER_API_KEY with a key from Settings › Model API Key and run it.
