Core Concepts
Automations
Trigger-based actions on pipeline events
Automations fire an action automatically when something happens in a pipeline, most commonly when a candidate moves into a given stage.
An automation has:
- A trigger (e.g. "candidate enters stage: Offer")
- An action, which can be a connected integration (HubSpot, Apollo, GitHub, Notion, HeyReach, LinkedIn) or a custom webhook call. This is how HireFlow supports posting to a Slack channel (see Slack).
Every automation keeps a run history so you can confirm it actually fired and see any errors. See Automations for a worked example.
