Automations

Create an active Automation from an app surface

Changed on

Den schedules Automations and keeps durable run history. A Desktop Automation runs on any of the owner's connected desktops (one pinned to a workspace, on a desktop that has it); a Cloud Automation runs in OpenWork Cloud. If no desktop runner is connected when a desktop occurrence is due, that occurrence is recorded as missed. Creation makes an Automation active immediately and uses the owner's current OpenWork Connect integrations. Deactivation stops future runs but does not cancel a run already in progress. This route creates Desktop Automations for first-party OpenWork clients, Desktop and Web alike. Agents must use createCloudAutomation so they cannot accidentally create Desktop placement.
