Build workflows that react to calls, contacts, and webhooks. Workflows let you automate what happens when something occurs in your workspace — a call ends, a contact is created, a tag is added, or a webhook fires. Chain triggers, actions, conditions, and delays together in a visual builder. ## How it works 1. **A trigger fires** — something happens (a call completes, a contact replies, etc.) 2. **Actions execute in order** — send an SMS, make a call, update a contact, post to Slack 3. **Conditions branch the flow** — take different paths based on data 4. **Delays pause when needed** — wait minutes, hours, or until a specific day ## Building workflows The workflow builder is a visual, node-based editor. Add a trigger, then drag actions, conditions, and delays into the flow. Each node has its own configuration panel. Workflows can be **published** and then **activated** or **deactivated** using the toggle in the editor toolbar (next to the Publish button). This lets you enable or disable a workflow without leaving the editor or deleting it. Deactivating a workflow stops it immediately: no new contacts are enrolled, and all in-progress executions are cancelled — including queued actions, delays, and scheduled follow-up calls. Cancelled executions appear in the execution history with a "Workflow deactivated" reason. A call that is already connected when you deactivate completes normally, but no new calls or messages are started. Reactivating the workflow does not resume cancelled executions — only new enrollments run. ## Learn more Events that start a workflow What your workflow can do Branching logic and timing controls Monitoring and troubleshooting runs
