Workflows

A workflow is an automation that connects multiple services/apps. It consists of:

• Nodes - Individual steps that perform actions (HTTP requests, code execution, integrations)
• Connections - Links between nodes defining data flow
• Triggers - How the workflow starts (webhook, schedule, manual, etc.)

Node Types

• Trigger nodes - Start workflows (Webhook, Schedule, Manual)
• Regular nodes - Process data (HTTP Request, Set, IF, Switch)
• Code nodes - Custom JavaScript/Python logic
• Integration nodes - Connect to services (Slack, Discord, Notion, etc.)
