What are Flows?

Flows are multi-step workflows that can:
  • Connect multiple apps to create seamless data pipelines
  • Run automatically based on triggers like schedules or webhooks
  • Process data between different systems
  • Handle complex logic with conditional branches and loops

Key Components

Triggers

  • Schedule: Run flows at specific times (daily, weekly, monthly)
  • Webhook: Trigger flows from external systems
  • Manual: Start flows on-demand
  • App Events: React to changes in connected apps

Actions

  • Read Data: Fetch information from connected apps
  • Write Data: Create or update records
  • Transform: Process and format data between steps
  • Notify: Send alerts or messages

Monitoring

  • Execution Logs: See detailed logs of each flow run
  • Error Handling: Built-in retry logic and error notifications
  • Performance Metrics: Track success rates and execution times
