Automations

Pro

Automations let you build if-this-then-that workflows that run automatically when contacts hit certain triggers - stage changes, tag additions, and more.

Overview

An automation consists of a trigger (when something happens) and one or more actions (what to do). RadiusOS evaluates triggers in real time - when a contact moves stages, gets tagged, or meets your criteria, the automation fires immediately.

ℹ️

Automations are a paid feature. Free plan users can see sample automations to understand what's possible, but creating and running automations requires Pro (up to 5) or Business/Team (unlimited).

Creating an automation

1

Go to Automations in the sidebar

Click + New Automation to open the automation editor.

2

Choose a trigger

Select what starts the automation. Options include: Stage Change (when a contact moves to a specific stage) and Tag Added (when a specific tag is applied to a contact).

3

Add actions

Define what happens when the trigger fires. Available actions: Create Task (with title, due date offset, and optional assignee), Send Email (using an email template with merge fields), Move to Stage (advance the contact to a different pipeline stage), and Wait (pause for a specified number of days before the next action).

4

Name and activate

Give your automation a descriptive name, toggle it to Active, and save. It starts evaluating immediately.

Re-engage stale leads

Managing automations

From the Automations list you can:

  • Toggle any automation on/off without deleting it
  • Edit triggers and actions at any time
  • Delete automations you no longer need

Automations run independently - disabling one doesn't affect others.
