# Import workflow from Agent Spec JSON
`POST /workflows/import/agentspec`

Convert an Agent Spec flow or document to a FlowDrop workflow.

The conversion:
- Maps Agent Spec component types to FlowDrop node types
- Merges control_flow_connections and data_flow_connections into unified edges
- Auto-layouts nodes if no position metadata is present
- Preserves Agent Spec component_type in FlowDrop extensions

This is the Agent Spec counterpart of the FlowDrop-native
`POST /workflows/import` under **Import and Export**.
