Tools are the fundamental building blocks of a [flow](./concept-flows.md).
|
|
|
|
Each tool is an executable unit, basically a function to performs various tasks including but not limited to:
|
|
- Accessing LLMs for various purposes
|
|
- Querying databases
|
|
- Getting information from search engines
|
|
- Pre/post processing of data
|
|
|
|
# Tools
|
|
|
|
Prompt flow provides 3 basic tools:
|
|
- [LLM](../reference/tools-reference/llm-tool.md): The LLM tool allows you to write custom prompts and leverage large language models to achieve specific goals, such as summarizing articles, generating customer support responses, and more.
|
|
- [Python](../reference/tools-reference/python-tool.md): The Python tool enables you to write custom Python functions to perform various tasks, such as fetching web pages, processing intermediate data, calling third-party APIs, and more.
|
|
- [Prompt](../reference/tools-reference/prompt-tool.md): The Prompt tool allows you to prepare a prompt as a string for more complex use cases or for use in conjunction with other prompt tools or python tools.
