Workflows

Workflows let you automate business processes — without writing code. They connect forms, logic, emails, APIs, and document actions into a single, repeatable flow.

Instead of manually reviewing requests, sending emails, or copying data between systems, a workflow does it for you — consistently and instantly.

What is a Workflow?

A workflow is a series of steps that run automatically when something happens — for example, when a client submits a form.

Each workflow can:

  • Collect information
  • Make decisions (logic & conditions)
  • Generate documents
  • Send emails
  • Call external systems (HTTP / APIs)

How It Works (At a Glance)

  1. Trigger
    Workflows begin when a form is submitted.
  2. Logic & Branches
    Decide what happens next based on the information provided.
  3. Actions
    Send emails, call APIs, generate documents, or notify your team.

Example workflow

In the example below:

  • A client submits an intake form
  • The workflow evaluates urgency and value based on the user input
  • High-priority requests notify the team and create a CRM lead
  • Standard requests receive an automatic confirmation with a document attachment

All of this runs without manual intervention, ensuring a consistent and efficient process.
