How to Build Your First Automation (No Code Needed)

Why Automate at All?

Setting up your first Fracture automation is easier than setting a calendar reminder — seriously. In this guide, we’ll walk you through building a real-world workflow without writing a single line of code.

A Step-by-Step Example

We’ll use a simple example: “Send a team message when a user signs up via the website.” You’ll learn how to pick a trigger, connect it to one or more actions, and add filters if needed. Screenshots included every step of the way.

Where It Saves You Time

The goal? Replace manual notifications, hand-offs, and onboarding steps with smart automations that just work. Bonus: we’ll show you how to expand this flow into a full onboarding pipeline with follow-ups, task creation, and internal alerts.

What to Do After Your First Flow

By the end of this post, you’ll be able to automate something useful for your own team — and trust us, once you automate one thing, you won’t want to stop.
