How to create a workflow
Go to Workflows from the top menu to create a + Blank workflow
. Select which form you’d like to apply the workflow to in the dropdown menu. Then, choose a trigger.
Alternatively, you may open an existing form first or create a new one, then click Integrate on the top menu followed by Workflows
.
Workflow triggers
A trigger refers to a condition that starts a specific action or series of actions. Examples are:
Form submitted
Form abandoned
Scheduling event canceled
Event rescheduled
Before event starts
Then, choose an action and Edit
it according to your preferences. To add more actions, press the +
icon.

Run AI (Summarize, Classify, Generate, Extract)
Send Slack/Teams/Discord messages

Send custom emails
Filter and Branch
