Workflows - IFTTT

Administrators can use workflows to automate certain standard operations within FileCloud.

Workflows operate using the following model:

IF "CONDITION" - THEN "ACTION" (IFTTT)

You can setup specific triggers to run when the following conditions occur:

  • A system event 
  • A specific date and time 
  • A variety of actions 

(lightbulb)  Each of the Conditions and Actions may require a parameter in JSON format. 

The Workflow Dashboard

All workflows are created and managed on the Workflows dashboard.

To access the Workflows dashboard:

  1. Open a browser and log into the admin portal.
  2. On the left hand navigation panel, under MISC., click Workflows.

The actions you can perform on a workflow you have created include:

  1. Enable or Disable the workflow
  2. Run the workflow (once, on-demand)
  3. Simulate the workflow. Displays the list of users or files that a workflow will affect. The Simulate option is only available to workflows that are configured to run on demand and not to run automatically at scheduled times.
  4. Edit the workflow
  5. See activity. (Shows the date of an event, and a description of the event, such as file upload, move, and deletion.   
  6. Delete the workflow
