# Firestore for Workflows

> Store workflow sessions in Firestore with FirestoreDb.

Agno supports using Firestore as a storage backend for Workflows using the `FirestoreDb` class.

## Usage

You need to provide either `project_id` or `db_client` to the `FirestoreDb` class. Firestore will connect automatically using your Google Cloud credentials.

Install dependencies:

```shell theme={null}
uv pip install agno openai google-cloud-firestore ddgs
```

```python firestore_for_workflow.py theme={null}
from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.db.firestore import FirestoreDb
from agno.models.openai import OpenAIResponses
from agno.team import Team
from agno.tools.hackernews import HackerNewsTools
from agno.tools.websearch import WebSearchTools
from agno.workflow.step import Step
from agno.workflow.workflow import Workflow

PROJECT_ID = "agno-os-test"  # Use your project ID here

# Setup the Firestore database
db = FirestoreDb(project_id=PROJECT_ID)

# Define agents
hackernews_agent = Agent(
    name="HackerNews Agent",
    model=OpenAIResponses(id="gpt-5.2"),
    tools=[HackerNewsTools()],
    role="Extract key insights and content from HackerNews posts",
)
web_agent = Agent(
    name="Web Agent",
    model=OpenAIResponses(id="gpt-5.2"),
    tools=[WebSearchTools()],
    role="Search the web for the latest news and trends",
)

# Define research team for complex analysis
research_team = Team(
    name="Research Team",
    members=[hackernews_agent, web_agent],
    instructions="Research tech topics from HackerNews and the web",
)

content_planner = Agent(
    name="Content Planner",
    model=OpenAIResponses(id="gpt-5.2"),
    instructions=[
        "Plan a content schedule over 4 weeks for the provided topic and research content",
        "Ensure that I have posts for 3 posts per week",
    ],
)

# Define steps
research_step = Step(
    name="Research Step",
    team=research_team,
)

content_planning_step = Step(
    name="Content Planning Step",
    agent=content_planner,
)

# Create and use workflow
if __name__ == "__main__":
    content_creation_workflow = Workflow(
        name="Content Creation Workflow",
        description="Automated content creation from blog posts to social media",
        db=db,
        steps=[research_step, content_planning_step],
    )
    content_creation_workflow.print_response(
        input="AI trends in 2024",
        markdown=True,
    )

```
