Choose how runs begin: manual tests, scheduled cron jobs, secure webhooks, Jira issue events, ClickUp task events, inbound WhatsApp messages, or dedicated email addresses.

Manual run

Manual

Launch from the workflow toolbar for testing changes or firing ad-hoc runs with custom payloads.

Schedule (cron)

Scheduled

Define a cron expression and timezone so runs fire automatically at predictable local times.

Webhook request

Webhook

Each workflow has a unique URL and secret. Add an optional schema and sample payload to validate inputs.

Jira issues

Jira

Connect Jira, pick a project and sprint filter (including Active sprint), and run workflows on selected issue events (updates, comments, worklogs, attachments) with optional comment enrichment.

ClickUp tasks

ClickUp

Connect ClickUp, pick a workspace/list filter, and trigger workflows on task events (created, updated, status changes, assignee updates, comments).

Inbound email

Every workflow can generate a dedicated wf_ address. Send or BCC to trigger runs with optional attachments.

WhatsApp message

Inbound WhatsApp messages trigger runs with sender, text, and audio/image metadata (URL, MIME type, bytes).

Each trigger supplies the initial payload that downstream actions can reference. Validate inputs with inline schemas or replay run data for debugging.
