Triggers are the events that start an automation, such as a new row, updated record, incoming message, or scheduled check. MindCloud watches for the trigger and starts the workflow when the event happens.

Automate tasks across FreshBooks with Motion

Q: How do triggers and actions work together?

A trigger starts the workflow, then actions do the work in connected apps. For example, a trigger can detect a new item and an action can send a message, create a task, update a record, or sync data.

Q: Can I create an automation right away?

Yes. You can describe the workflow you want, connect the apps involved, and use MindCloud to turn that request into an automation your team can refine and run.
