Automation helps eliminate repetitive tasks and ensures your tools work together without constant manual effort. But most real-world processes—like onboarding a customer, sending alerts, or syncing sales data—involve more than one action. That’s where multi-step automations come in.

In this article, you’ll learn what multi-step automations are, how to build them in Albato, and how they help you save time, reduce errors, and scale operations across your tools.

What is a multi-step automation

A multi-step automation is a workflow that involves more than one action or app in sequence. For example, when a new lead comes in, you might want to:

  • Add the lead to your CRM

  • Send a personalized email

  • Notify your sales team in Slack

  • Add a follow-up task to your to-do list

All of these steps can be triggered by a single event, such as a form submission or new ad lead.

With Albato, you can build these workflows visually, combining different apps, filters, conditions, and even AI models—without writing code.

How to set up a multi-step automation in albato

Creating a multi-step workflow in Albato is simple. Here’s how:

1. Connect your apps

Start by connecting all the tools you plan to use—CRMs, email platforms, task managers, AI tools, etc. Albato supports hundreds of popular services.

2. Choose your trigger

Pick the event that will start the automation. This could be something like “new row in Google Sheets,” “new form response,” or “new order in Shopify.”

3.Add your first action

Choose what should happen next—like “create contact in HubSpot” or “send email via Gmail.” You can map fields from the trigger to the new app.

4. Add additional steps

Click "Add Step" to continue building. You can:

  • Add actions in the same app or different apps

  • Use filters to control when a step should run

  • Delay actions or run them in parallel

  • Connect AI models like ChatGPT to analyze or summarize data

5. Test your scenario

Before activating the workflow, use test data to preview each step and confirm it works as expected.

6. Turn it on

Once you're satisfied, activate the automation. Albato will now run the full sequence every time the trigger event occurs.

Here you can find some examples of marketing and sales automations.
