Steps a workflow can run in Open Food Facts.

Get a product by barcodeLook up a food product in the Open Food Facts database by its barcode using the v3 API. Returns the product's details along with computed values such as the Nutri-Score, NOVA processing group, Green-Score, nutrient levels, ingredients, and allergens (when Open Food Facts has enough data to compute them). A barcode that isn't in the database yet comes back as a not-found result rather than an error, so a workflow can branch on it: status is 'failure', and result.id is 'product_not_found', or 'product_found_with_a_different_product_type' for a cosmetic, pet food, or other non-food product. By default a curated set of the most useful fields is returned; pass a comma-separated Fields list to choose your own, or 'all' for the complete record.
Get taxonomy suggestionsGet autocomplete suggestions from an Open Food Facts taxonomy, for example matching category, label, or brand names as a user types. Useful for offering valid tag values when building or filtering product data.
List attribute groupsList the attribute-group definitions Open Food Facts uses to rate products: nutritional quality (Nutri-Score), food processing (NOVA), allergens, labels, and more. Handy for building preference-based scoring or filtering. To see how a particular product rates on them, add attribute_groups to the Fields of 'Get a product by barcode'.
