Create Automations with Copilot’s built-in Automations
The Automations feature in Copilot simplifies the process of creating, managing, and tracking workflows within Copilot. At this time we support 3 popular automations templates. Over time, we plan to add more templates and add support for a freeform builder. To request a particular automation, you can fill out this form.
In the sidebar, click Automations.
If no automations exist, select Assign a contract when a client logs in for the first time. If you have existing automations, click Create a workflow and select the same template.
In the first configuration step, select the Client creation method from the dropdown. You have four options: Created by Internal User, Created by Client User, Direct Sign up, or Any. Choose the option that fits, then click Next.
In the next step, choose the contract from the dropdown to send to newly activated clients.
Note: You must have at least one contract template created, and it should not contain variable input fields.
Click Publish to complete the automation.
