HighLevel workflows automate a sequence of actions after a trigger occurs. The platform currently documents trigger categories for contacts, events, appointments, opportunities, affiliates, courses, and more.

Triggers start the workflow
A trigger is the event that begins automation. HighLevel examples include form submissions, appointment bookings, and payments. A good workflow starts with an event that has a clear business meaning.
Actions do the work
Actions run after the trigger. HighLevel groups actions around contacts, communication, data, internal tools, appointments, AI, and other functions. Common examples include sending a message, updating a contact, assigning a lead, or notifying a team member.
A practical agency workflow
A lead submits a form. The system sends confirmation, creates or updates the opportunity, assigns an owner, waits for a response window, and follows up if the lead has not booked. Once an appointment is booked, another trigger can stop the old follow up and start appointment reminders.
Build stop conditions
Automation becomes annoying when it keeps running after the goal is complete. Decide when a workflow should stop, when a person should take over, and which events should remove a contact from future messages.
Connect workflows to the CRM
