How to Create, Configure, and Trigger an Option Generator Workflow

Implement the sketch from the previous module by creating an Options Generator, configuring its initial inputs and output, and setting up the appropriate trigger.

Module Overview

💡 Planning a workflow before building speeds up the process by sorting out logistics upfront, so you can focus on execution later. The inputs and outputs are key to this module—without them, the options generator won't work.

Log into Rewst and complete the following steps.

Step 1: Create a Workflow

1. Create a new workflow called "Option Generator for Microsoft Groups."

   • Personalize the name and add tags to your liking.

2. Select the pencil icon to configure the workflow settings.

3. Select "Option Generator" for the workflow type.

   • As a bonus, this will add an "option gen" tag to your workflow, so you can easily filter for those in your list of all the workflows.

4. Add Time Saved

5. Add the Input Configurations

   • user_id

   • action

6. Add the Output Configuration

   • Field Name: options

   • Select the Jinja Editor Icon

   • Enter CTX.group_list

7: Select Submit to save the settings

Step 2: Add Workflow Trigger

1. Select the lightning bolt to add a workflow trigger.

2. Enter "option generator" for the name

3. Toggle Enabled to enable the trigger.

4. Search for "always" in the "trigger type" dropdown

5. Select 'Core - Always Pass.'

   • The workflow will trigger as soon as we have a "user" and an "action" selected - before the form is submitted.

6. Select Microsoft Graph for integration override.

7. Select your own organization

   • Test with a user you're comfortable with (maybe yourself).

   • If you want to use this process for your customers, refer to the special instructions on the Rewst 104 tutorial page in Cluck University

8. Submit to save the trigger.

Action Item

• Create a workflow and configure its properties, inputs, and outputs to function as an Option Generator.

• Setup a trigger for the Option Generator workflow.

• Add an Integration Override to the Option Generator so it can be used across all your managed organizations. This ensures the workflow is flexible and scalable for different environments
