Building your first automation workflow

Updated 30 August 2026 Sovereign Knowledge Base

A workflow is a trigger followed by one or more actions. This guide walks you through building your first one.

1. Choose a trigger

Pick the event that starts your automation - a new form submission, an incoming email, or a scheduled time.

2. Add actions

Chain the steps that should run: send a notification, update a record, or call another service.

3. Test and activate

Run the workflow with sample data, confirm each step behaves as expected, then switch it live.
