What Are Workflow Nodes?
Nodes are the individual building blocks used to construct a Workflow. Each node performs a specific job, such as listening for an event, checking a condition, sending a notification, or updating a record.
By combining and connecting different nodes, you can build anything from a simple alert to a fully customized automation.
All available nodes can be found in the right-hand column beside the Workflow canvas, ready to be dragged into place.
This article provides a high-level overview of the available Workflow nodes. For more detailed instructions about a particular node, select the corresponding guide.
Listener
Every Workflow starts with a Listener node. The Listener acts as the first filter, watching for the specific type of event and parameters you want your Workflow to respond to.
- Listener: The starting point of every Workflow, listening for a defined triggering event. Learn more
Filter
Filter nodes check a condition and determine which path the Workflow should take next.
- True/False Decision: Evaluates a condition and routes the Workflow down one of two paths depending on the outcome. Learn more
Delay
Delay nodes introduce a time-based element to your Workflow.
- Duration: Measures how long a condition has been active. Learn more
- Count: Tallies how many times an event occurs. Learn more
- Timer: Tracks time-based conditions. Learn more

Usage Calculation
Usage Calculation nodes monitor distance and time-based usage.
- Usage Distance: Monitors distance thresholds. Learn more
- Usage Duration: Monitors duration thresholds. Learn more
Decision
Decision nodes route a Workflow down different paths according to outcomes.
