HOW IT WORKS
Automate any task with custom if-then logic
In addition to hundreds of workflows that Rippling automates out of the box, you can build custom triggers and automate processes no other system can.
Custom triggers
Trigger workflows using any event in Rippling, such as role transitions, device timeouts, and spikes in company spending.
Powerful actions
Go beyond notifications with automated actions like sending reports, paying out bonuses, or granting additional PTO.
CUSTOM TRIGGERS
Trigger workflows based onany data in Rippling
Other workflow tools have a narrow list of triggers, which limits what you can automate. Rippling gives you the freedom to build your own triggers—without code—using the data in Rippling's Employee Graph.
Internal data
Trigger workflows based on any employee attribute—department, device, you name it.
Third-party data
Trigger workflows based on data in your third-party apps, like Zendesk and Slack.
Formula fields
Trigger workflows based on Formula Fields; calculate and combine multiple pieces of data into one field with Excel-like formulas.
CUSTOM WORKFLOWS
Automate more than onboarding emails
Add new hires to orientation sessions. Initiate a Slack channel as soon as a security risk is detected. Route unexpected spend for approval. Rippling's workflows do a lot more than notify.

That’s because these systems need to be constantly maintained to have the level of functionality users expect. Workflow automation can reduce the manual work by connecting these systems and move data between them using if-then logic.
