# workflow-id-matches-export-or-filename - ESLint plugin rules

This rule requires a workflow's ID, the first argument of `createWorkflow`, to be a kebab-case string that matches the exported workflow name or filename.

## Severity

`warn`. This rule is enabled in the [recommended](https://docs.medusajs.com/resources/lint#recommended) preset.

## What it Targets

This rule targets files in your project's `src/workflows` directory. It reports a `createWorkflow` ID that:

- isn't kebab-case.
- doesn't match the exported workflow name, with a trailing `Workflow` segment stripped.
- doesn't match the filename.

The following code is reported by the rule:

```ts title="src/workflows/example.ts"
import {
  createWorkflow,
  WorkflowResponse,
} from "@medusajs/framework/workflows-sdk"

export const helloWorldWorkflow = createWorkflow(
  "helloWorldWorkflow",
  (input) => {
    return new WorkflowResponse({ ok: true })
  }
)
```

Instead, use a kebab-case ID that matches the workflow name:

```ts title="src/workflows/example.ts"
import {
  createWorkflow,
  WorkflowResponse,
} from "@medusajs/framework/workflows-sdk"

export const helloWorldWorkflow = createWorkflow(
  "hello-world",
  (input) => {
    return new WorkflowResponse({ ok: true })
  }
)
```

## Why it's Important

Using a consistent, kebab-case ID that matches the workflow's exported name or filename makes workflows easier to identify and reference.

Learn more in the [Workflows documentation](https://docs.medusajs.com/learn/fundamentals/workflows).

## Fixable

This rule is auto-fixable. Run the linter with the `--fix` option to apply the fix automatically.

## Turn it Off

To turn off this rule, set it to `off` in your ESLint configuration:

```ts title="eslint.config.ts"
import { defineConfig } from "eslint/config"
import medusa from "@medusajs/eslint-plugin"

export default defineConfig([
  ...medusa.configs.recommended,
  {
    rules: {
      "@medusajs/workflow-id-matches-export-or-filename": "off",
    },
  },
])
```

Or disable it for a single line using an inline comment:

```ts
// eslint-disable-next-line @medusajs/workflow-id-matches-export-or-filename
export const helloWorldWorkflow = createWorkflow(
```
