Automation Assets

Include all automation assets in the activity picker to add a subflow, flow, or action directly to your playbook without having to create an activity definition.

Use cases

Use automation assets in your playbook if:

  • You need an activity that only requires automation.

  • The activity doesn’t need to be reusable.

  • You don’t need a UI.

If you need a UI or an activity that is reusable, create an activity definition.

Asset types

When adding an activity, select Include all automation assets in the activity picker to add flows, subflows and actions.
