Say I have some reusable function I want to use from both a workflow and outside of temporal – is there any problem with simply making that function a temporal activity and calling that activity outside of a temporal context?

this should be ok as long as you don’t use any temporal api inside the function, otherwise it is not gonna work when you call outside of the temporal context
is there any problem with simply making that function a temporal activity and calling that activity outside of a temporal context?
do you mean “and calling that function outside of a temporal context?” or do you really want to invoke a temporal activity outside of workflow code?

Yes I meant calling that function thank you. And the only thing imported from temporal is ApplicationFailure
As long as you don’t rely on activity context, you should be able to run the function directly.
Hi @antonio.perez
Am i able to execute an temporal activity without a need to a workflow ?
If yes, then please tell me how
No, Temporal doesn’t support stand alone activities yet.
