What Are Workflows?
Workflows are multi-step automated pipelines that chain tasks together in sequence. They let you orchestrate complex processes where one task’s completion triggers the next.
Creating Your First Workflow
- Navigate to Workflows in the sidebar
- Click ”+ New Workflow”
- Give it a name (e.g., “Client Report Pipeline”)
- You’ll enter the visual workflow builder
The Visual Builder
The drag-and-drop builder shows your workflow as a series of connected nodes:
- Start node — Where the workflow begins
- Task nodes — Each step in the pipeline
- End node — Where the workflow completes
Adding Steps
- Click ”+ Add Step” or drag a new node onto the canvas
- Configure the step:
- Task — Which task to execute
- Assignee — Who handles this step (human or AI)
- Trigger type — How this step is triggered
- Connect steps by dragging lines between nodes
Connecting Steps
Steps are connected in sequence. Draw a line from one step’s output to the next step’s input. This defines the execution order.
A Simple Example
Client Onboarding Workflow:
- ➡️ Receive client info (Manual trigger, Human)
- ➡️ Set up account (Auto on completion, AI Agent)
- ➡️ Send welcome email (Auto on completion, AI Agent)
- ➡️ Schedule intro call (Auto on completion, Human)
Saving and Activating
- Click Save to save your workflow as a draft
- Click Activate to make it available for execution
- Trigger the workflow manually or set up automatic triggers
Tip: Start simple. Build a 2-3 step workflow first, verify it works, then expand with more steps and conditional logic.
