An Introduction to Workflows

Workflows are one of the most powerful tools in your MediaOS Suite. Whether you are in publishing, events, expos or any other myriad of business verticals, these automations are specifically enhanced to save you time and money.

Think of Workflow as a way for you to generate large “If / Then” statements. For example, you could build a workflow that says “IF a contract is set to won, THEN send this email.”

Helpful tip: The first thing you’ll want to determine when creating a new workflow is “What is the route cause or trigger event for my workflow?” For example, if we choose Contract is “Set to Won,” that is your trigger event. Now, every time a new contract is set to Won, whatever you set up next in the workflow is going to happen.
