Automations screen
An automation pairs a Trigger with a name and an Enabled state. Open Flow > Automations in the Admin Panel navigation.
List controls
Control | Description |
Name | Narrows the list to automations whose name matches the text you type. |
Trigger | Narrows the list to automations listening for one trigger. |
Enabled | Separates active automations from ones turned off. |
Create | Opens the form for a new automation. |
When no automations match the filters, the page displays No Automations found.
Create form
The create form contains separate controls for the automation name, trigger, and enabled state.
Control | Description |
Name | Names the automation. The field is required. |
Trigger | Selects the platform event the automation listens for. The field is required. |
Enabled | Sets whether the automation is active as soon as you save it. |
Save | The control is unavailable on the empty form. It stays unavailable until Name and Trigger are both complete. |
Triggers
The Trigger list covers platform events that an automation can listen for, including account and sign-in activity, basket and catalog changes, order progress through the ERP, employee account changes, synchronization outcomes, installed-application health, and system upgrades. The trigger set is fixed by the platform, so you choose from the offered list rather than defining new triggers here.
Notes
An automation saved with Enabled clear stays in the list and takes no action until you enable it.
