How Do You Build Workflows for Reminders and Follow-Ups?

1 min read

Anatomy of a Workflow #

A workflow has three parts: a trigger, an optional delay, and one or more actions. Open Workflows and choose New workflow to build one.

Triggers #

  • Booking created
  • Before meeting starts
  • After meeting ends
  • Booking rescheduled
  • Booking cancelled
  • Invitee marked as no-show

Actions #

  • Send an email to the invitee, the host, or a fixed address such as a shared inbox
  • Send an SMS to the invitee, where a phone question has collected a number
  • Call a webhook endpoint with the booking payload
  • Add a tag to the booking for later filtering

Variables #

Message bodies support placeholders that are substituted at send time, including {{invitee_name}}, {{host_name}}, {{event_name}}, {{start_time}}, {{meeting_link}}, {{reschedule_url}}, and {{cancel_url}}. Answers to custom questions are available as {{answers.slug}} using the question’s slug.

Scope #

A workflow applies to selected event types or to all of them. Team admins can create workflows that apply across every member’s event types, which is how a consistent reminder policy is enforced without asking each person to configure it.

Testing #

The Send test action delivers the rendered message to your own address using sample data, so you can check formatting and variable substitution before enabling the workflow.
