Create and manage automated workflows

Review a sample workflow. Understand and configure workflows triggers, actions, and jobs.

Tutorial: Create a simple workflow that transfers a package
In this tutorial, you create and configure an automated workflow that triggers each time a package is received by a shared inbox in Aspera on Cloud. While this example may not match your precise use case, it demonstrates the basic process for assembling the components of a workflow in the Automation app.
Workflow actions and their attributes
This topic provides detailed information on workflow actions and their specific configurable attributes. Workflow actions include transfer, send a package, notify, call an API, and so on.
Workflow triggers and their attributes
This topic provides detailed information on workflow triggers available and their specific configurable attributes. Workflow triggers include scheduled or time based; file, folder, and shared inbox events; and so on.
Managing workflows and jobs
You can manage your workflows and jobs by changing their current activity.
Use substitution variables in workflow actions
You can use global or customer substitution variables to configure the fields in workflow actions.
Configuring API callback
When you enable API callback in Automation, after the API action makes a call to the defined API, the workflow pauses and waits for the external service to call back to Automation. If Automation receives a response with a status value of success, the workflow proceeds to the next step.
