Summary

In this chapter, we saw many new and interesting ways of automating work. We can now choose a workflow by using the relevant trigger. We can also capture data using elegant and intuitive apps. Data handling, UI, and business actions—all can now be woven together in a simple yet powerful way, without programming.

Explore these apps in more detail and try to apply them to your business needs. Start small. Initially, learn with simple data and scenarios. Implement simple solutions first. Then, move on to more complex use cases.

In the next chapter, we will see how to apply all the knowledge we have gained so far in a logical and integrated way. We know about all the ingredients. Now, it's time to combine these ingredients and create recipes!

Happy automation!
