Automation rules do routine work for you – for example remind the team 7 days before an event.
Who can do this: team members with the automation module and permission to view, create, edit or delete automations.
- Open Settings → Advanced → Automation. The cards at the top show Executions (7d), Success rate, Most active and Recent failures; below is the list of rules with module, trigger, number of actions, status and last run.

- Filter by Module and Status, search by name or description, or Export the list.

- Click … on a rule to Edit, Duplicate, start a Test run, View logs, change the status (Set Active, Set Paused, Set Archived) or Delete it.

- Click Create Rule. Pick a template (filter by Events, Contacts, Bookings, Shifts) or click Start from scratch.

Good to know
- New rules start as Draft and do nothing until you set them to Active.
- Paused stops a rule temporarily; Archived keeps it for reference.
- Slack and Google Calendar actions need the matching integration.
