How does Albato work?

Albato automation scenario is built from simple and clear blocks.

Each automation has a trigger (event) and at least one action.

Specify the following steps:

• What data do you want to get from one app?
• When do you want to get it?
• What action do you want to perform in another app?

Trigger

Trigger is an event that starts the automation. Triggers can be linked to a specific event that proceeds in real time in the selected app.

Example: form submission, deal status updating, invoice payment.

Triggers also can be scheduled to start automations at a certain frequency.

Example: downloading expenses from Ad account once a week or receiving stock balances every 5 minutes.

Action

Action is what Albato performs when your trigger occurs. Each completed action is considered as one Albato operation.

Therefore

User submits a form – trigger.
Data from the form is transferred to Google Sheets – action. Google sheets creates new row – operation.
