Intro to Workflow

A Workflow in 5day.io is the smart rule that powers your Automation. It’s the “if this, then that” recipe you create once and let run forever inside a project.

Why Workflow is Important

  • Ends the daily grind of moving tasks, updating statuses, or chasing people.
  • Makes your team 10x faster without extra effort.
  • Keeps every project consistent - even when different people work on it.
  • Turns chaos into clockwork, every single time.

Key Features of Workflow

  • Lives inside one project (keeps things clean and safe).
  • Super-simple setup: pick a Trigger → add Conditions (optional) → choose Actions.
  • Runs instantly and silently in the background.
  • Logs every single move in the Activity Stream so you always know what happened.
  • You can turn it on/off or edit it any time.

In short: one Workflow = hundreds of manual clicks saved. Build a few good ones and watch your project basically run itself.
