Automations Overview

Automations connect your existing tools to Marketrix and let work happen on its own. Wire up an event in one tool, run a sequence of steps, and have the results delivered where your team already works — no manual kickoff required.

Everything lives on the Automations page in the dashboard, organized into three building blocks:

  • Connectors — Integrations with external platforms (GitHub, Slack, Teams, Jira) plus the built-in Timer and MCP providers.
  • Triggers — The events or schedules that start an automation, such as a repository push, a Slack slash command, or a cron schedule.
  • Workflows — Visual sequences that wire a trigger to one or more steps, with optional conditions between them.
  1. Connect a provider — Authenticate GitHub, Slack, Teams, or Jira so Marketrix can listen for their events and act on your behalf. Timer and MCP need no external account.
  2. Define a trigger — Choose what starts the automation: a platform event, a slash command, or a schedule.
  3. Build a workflow — Drag the trigger and one or more steps onto the canvas, connect them, and optionally add conditions that branch the flow.
  4. Let it run — When the trigger fires, the workflow runs each step in order. You can also run any workflow on demand with Run Now.

Every workflow keeps a history of its runs. Each run records its status, when it started and finished, how long it took, and a per-step breakdown so you can see exactly which step succeeded, failed, or was skipped — and inspect each step’s output. Triggers keep their own run history too, so you can confirm an event actually fired.
