Automation
Automations in Jestor let you trigger actions automatically based on events in your tables — no code required. Each automation has a trigger (the event that starts it) and one or more actions (what happens as a result).
How to access Automations
Step 1
Open the table where you want to create the automation. In the table's top action bar, click + Automation.
Step 2
The Table Automations panel will open on the right side, listing all existing automations for that table. Click + Create new automation (or + Add automation at the bottom of the panel).
Step 3
The automation editor will open. At the top, you can rename your automation by clicking the pencil icon next to the default name.
Step 4
Under When, select the trigger — the event that will activate this automation. Example: When a new record is created.
Step 5
Under Do, click + Add action to define what should happen when the trigger fires. You can add multiple actions to a single automation.
Step 6
After configuring the trigger and all actions, click Create to save the automation.

FAQ
1 — Where do I find all automations I've created?
Automations are stored inside each table. Open the table, click + Automation in the top bar, and the panel will list all automations for that table.
2 — Can one automation trigger another automation?
Yes, if an action in automation A modifies a record in a way that meets the trigger condition of automation B, automation B will run. Be careful to avoid infinite loops.
3 — Can I apply the same automation to multiple tables at once?
No. Each automation is created and managed inside a specific table. You need to recreate it in each table separately.
4 — Do automations run on existing records?
No. Automations only fire on events that happen after they are activated. Past records are not affected.
5 — Can I pause an automation without deleting it?
Yes. Inside the Table Automations panel, you can toggle an automation on or off without deleting it.
