Adding follow up to a workflow

Once you have created a workflow you can edit it at any time to add or remove triggers and actions. In the same way, by editing it you could modify the actions of a particular trigger.

In this tutorial we are going to see how by editing an existing workflow we can add a follow up to the workflow.

Starting from the workflow with three automations:

  • Send confirmation email.
  • Send reminder emails.
  • Send cancellation email.

We will add a fourth automation which will be:

  • Send follow up email.

Validate yourself with your TuCalendi username and password. Go to the "Flows" menu:

Flows menu

In the option "Workflows (after booking)" click on "Select" and you will see the workflows you have created:

Workflow

Click "Edit" on the workflow you want to modify:

Editing a workflow

The workflow will be displayed in the current state and you can start modifying it:

The new automation we want to add to the workflow is to send a follow up email when the meeting is done.

New trigger. After a meeting has ended.

When the meeting with a customer has ended it is important to send a follow up email to stay connected with the customer. For this to happen you need to add a new trigger to the workflow.

Click on "Add trigger":

Add trigger

In the drop-down menu, the available triggers will appear:

Available triggers

Select the trigger "After a booking/meeting ends":

Add trigger when a meeting has ended

Now we need to add the action that will occur when the meeting has ended.

Add new action. Send follow up email.

Click on "Add new action" in the corresponding trigger:

Add new action to trigger meeting has ended

In order to be able to choose what should occur.

add action

Select the action from the drop-down menu:

Available action for trigger

Since what we want to happen is to send the follow-up email when the meeting has ended, you need to select the "Send Follow-up" action:

Add send follow up

You must schedule when you want the follow up email to be sent, choose the follow up template you want to send, the email account from where the follow up email will be sent and click "Add":

IMPORTANT: For the follow up email to be sent you must add your own email account.

Workflow with follow up added

When you have finished editing the workflow or each step you are including click on "Save".

Now our workflow after editing consists of four automations:

  • Send confirmation email.
  • Send reminder emails.
  • Send cancellation email.
  • Send follow up email.

And it will be applied to all events assigned to this workflow.
