Follow the steps below to create your first automation with a condition and an action.
Before you start, clarify three points:
Goal: what task do you want to automate?
Required fields: which ones to test in the condition and which ones the action should update.
Trigger: when (and on which event) should the automation run?
Once these elements are defined, you can configure your automation in just a few clicks, without forgetting anything.
Follow the steps below to create a 1st automation scenario
-
➡️ Create an automation
1️⃣ Click on Automate.
2️⃣ Then select Automate with TimeTonic. -
➡️ Configure the settings
1️⃣ Click on the edit icon of the automation.
2️⃣ Enter the scenario name and add a description to document it. -
➡️ Select a trigger
Click on: 1️⃣ WHEN (trigger selection), then 2️⃣ choose from the list.
-
➡️ Select a condition and/or an action
➡️ Click on the ✚ icon.
➡️ The Elements window opens with:
➡️ Control blocks (Conditions).
➡️ Action blocks (write, send, create, etc.).
👉 Then select the element to insert into your scenario. -
➡️ Select a condition
Click on: → Add a new condition line
1️⃣ select the table column2️⃣ select the type of condition3️⃣ add the condition to check4️⃣ delete the condition line5️⃣ add a second condition line6️⃣ clear the selections in the lines7️⃣ close the window8️⃣ save the window -
➡️ Configure multiple conditions
➡️ AND: all conditions in the group must be true.
➡️ OR: only one condition in the group is enough.
➡️ Nested groups: possibility to put one group inside another to combine multiple levels of logic. -
➡️ Add condition branches
1️⃣ Click on a condition
{ } If.
2️⃣ In the context menu, select Conditional branching.
➡️ Then add a new condition to check ({ } If,{ } Else if,{ } Else).
➡️ Repeat the operation as many times as needed to create multiple branches, each with its own actions. -
➡️ Organize your conditional branches (If / Else if / Else)
Once your branches are added, they appear side by side in the visual editor:
{ } If→ first condition checked,{ } Else if→ alternative conditions,{ } Else→ default scenario.
➡️ Each branch can contain its own actions, executed only if the condition matches. -
➡️ Add an action
To add an action to your scenario, two options:
1️⃣ Right-click on a condition (
{ } If,{ } Else if,{ } Else) then choose ➕ add action in the context menu.
2️⃣ Click directly on the ✚ button under the condition block to insert a new action. -
➡️ Choose and configure an action
👉 By clicking on Add an action, a window opens to choose the element to insert.
➡️ Each action can then be configured according to your needs: write into a field, send an email, create a record, generate an invitation, call a webhook, or use AI (ChatGPT, MistralAI, OCR). -
➡️ Save your new automation scenario
Test it in your workspace to ensure it works properly
