4. FAQs
What is an automation execution?
Each trigger and action executed within an automated workflow (automation) is an automation execution. An example of a trigger within an automation is ‘New Lead Created’, ‘New Activity Created on Lead’ and an action executed within an automation can be ‘Update Lead’, ‘Send Email’, ‘Send SMS’, ‘Add Activity’, ‘Create Task’ etc. For instance, if an automation is created to send an email to every new lead created, New Lead Created will be the trigger for the automation and Send Email will be the action executed.
How is automation execution calculated?
If one lead goes through an automation with five automation cards (each card represents a particular action within an automation), then five automation executions are counted. Similarly, if hundred leads go through the same automation with five cards then five hundred automation executions are counted. Let’s consider the example used in the FAQ above. If one lead goes through this automation, both the trigger and action cards are executed and hence, there are 2 automation executions. If 50 leads go though this automation, then the trigger and action cards are both executed 50 times each and hence, there are 100 automation executions.
