In Workato, automations are built using workflows and recipes.  These powerful tools allow you to seamlessly connect different applications and automate tasks without writing code. This article will explain the core concepts of workflows and recipes to help you get started.

 A workflow represents a series of actions that are triggered by specific events. These actions can involve sending emails, updating data, creating records, and more.

 You could create a workflow that automatically sends a welcome email to new users who sign up for your service. The trigger would be the user registration event, and the action would be sending the welcome email.

 Recipes are pre-built workflows that automate common tasks across various applications. They provide a convenient way to get started with automation quickly. 

  You could find a recipe for automatically adding new contacts from Google Sheets to Salesforce CRM.

 You can customize recipes to fit your specific needs by editing triggers, actions, and data mappings.
