# Using the Workflows object

In coded automations, you can call other coded (CS) or low-code (XAML) automations using the `workflows` object. This object, an instance of the `WorkflowRunnerService` class from the `CodedWorkflow` partial class, can run all workflows in a project.

The `workflows` object lists every workflow in your project, regardless of folder placement. If workflows with the same name exist in different folders, the folder structure prefixes one to avoid confusion.

Compared to the `RunWorkflow` method, the `workflows` object allows you to invoke other automations dynamically, meaning that whatever change you bring to the file that was invoked somewhere else in the project, its references will be updated, including any potential errors.

This tutorial shows how to use the `workflows` object to invoke low-code workflows (XAML) within coded automations (CS). Secondly, it shows the use of the **Invoke Workflow File** activity to call coded automations within low-code automations.

Through this tutorial, you will create the following automations:

1. `Random` - A coded workflow (CS file) that generates a random value within a specific range determined by minimum and maximum integer values you provide. It then delivers the generated random value back to the calling environment.
2. `Increment` - A low-code XAML workflow that increments the received value by 1.
3. `IncrementProxy` - This coded workflow (a CS file) takes the randomly generated value from the `Random` workflow, invokes the `Increment` XAML workflow on this value (using the `workflows` object), and then returns the incremented result to the calling environment.
4. `Main` - This entry-point workflow integrates all the other workflows by invoking the`Random` and the `IncrementProxy` coded workflows using the **Invoke Workflow File** activity. Finally, it prints the incremented random value to the output.

## Sample project

To follow the steps in these tutorials, check out the following sample project, that covers the examples for every scenario documented: [Hybrid Automations Using Workflows Object](https://documentationexamplerepo.blob.core.windows.net/examples/CodedAutomations/Hybrid_Automations_Using_Workflows_Object_2312.zip).
