Automation Flows

The steps in between are what the rule does.

A flow starts at an event, checks a condition and runs actions. You build it on a canvas of nodes and connections, without a line of code, and every run is afterwards traceable in the log.

Five kinds of trigger

A Collabase event, a schedule, a webhook, a manual run or an external service

More than forty connectors

From Slack and GitHub through to Bexio, Abacus and any API over HTTP

Every run in the log

Input, output and status per node, including for a run that stopped

The limits are stated

Sixty runs per minute and rule, five minutes runtime, a hundred active rules per space

When this shows

When the same five steps hang off every single case.

A ticket comes in, somebody creates the work item, sets the priority, posts it in a chat and adds a row to a spreadsheet. Only then does the actual work start. A flow takes those five steps, and what the person contributes stays the decision.

01

The same steps are carried out by hand twenty times a day.

02

A critical alert reaches the person responsible the next morning.

03

Two systems hold the same data and somebody reconciles them.

Value

What you gain.

Triggers from Collabase and from outside

A new work item, a status change, a new page, a finished test run, a changed registry record. Plus a schedule in cron notation with your timezone, a webhook with its own secret, a manual run, and events from connected services.

Conditions that steer the run

A filter stops the branch when the condition does not hold, silently and without an error. If-else carries both paths on, a router as many as you need. Rules combine with AND or OR and read any field from the trigger or from an earlier node.

Filter, if-else, routerAND and OR per node

Actions with saved connections

Collabase actions create work items, change pages and notify people in house, with no credentials at all. For everything else there is the connection: created once, stored encrypted, reusable in every rule and shared privately, within the space or across the whole installation as you choose.

Connections stored encryptedRetries with a wait

Wait, approve, catch

A flow pauses until a period has passed or a person has decided, then takes the path for approved, rejected or timed out. An error handler catches a failed node instead of ending the whole run, and recurring parts live as a flow of their own that others call.

Approval with a deadlineCatch errors instead of failing
Use cases

Who this pays off for.

Service desk

A critical ticket reaches the on-call person the moment it arrives.

Engineering

A branch, a pull request and the status change hang together without a manual step.

Finance and HR

Connectors to Bexio, Abacus and Personio keep master data aligned without double entry.

Operations

An alert from monitoring becomes a work item with an owner and a deadline.

Ecosystem

Automation flows belong to the automation engine.

A flow listens to events from Projects, Docs, Test Management and Registry and writes back into the same apps. Approvals from a workflow run through it, and the AI nodes use the model your installation runs. All apps share login, permissions and data. One licence, one deployment, one point of contact.

Operations

Operations and data sovereignty.

Where the data sits is decided by the operating model, not by the small print.

Swiss hosted

Operated on Swiss public cloud at Infomaniak, one isolated environment per customer. Content is processed in Switzerland only, apart from the upstream web application firewall.

Self-hosted

Runs on your own infrastructure. Full control over the data, no access from outside.

revFADP & GDPR

Data processing agreement included. Compliant with the revised Swiss data protection act and the GDPR.

Pricing

One licence, all apps.

Collabase Enterprise

On request

Staged by user count

Automation Flows is part of the Enterprise plan. All seven apps, no add-ons.
