Introducing Workflow Automations

Turn a data source into finished visuals on autopilot: connect Google Sheets or Airtable, render a template for every row, and deliver the results anywhere. No Zapier chain required.

Orshot can now run your whole visual pipeline, not just the rendering step.

Workflow Automations live right inside your workspace: pick a trigger, connect a data source, choose a template, and tell Orshot where to send the results. From then on it runs by itself, on a schedule, on a webhook, or the moment new data shows up.

What a workflow looks like

Every workflow is the same simple shape: trigger → data → render → deliver.

  1. Trigger: on a schedule, from an incoming webhook, manually, or when new rows appear in your source
  2. Data: rows from Google Sheets or Airtable, files from Google Drive, or the webhook payload itself
  3. Render: any Orshot template, one image, PDF, or video per row, with columns mapped to template fields
  4. Deliver: write links back to your sheet or base, save files to Drive or Dropbox, post to Slack or your social accounts, push to S3 or WordPress, or just keep a URL

One run can process a whole batch of rows, so a single workflow covers anything from a daily quote graphic to a few thousand certificates.

First-class Google Sheets and Airtable

Both integrations now connect with one click through OAuth. No API keys to create, no tokens to paste. Once connected, the builder shows your actual spreadsheets, bases, and tables in live pickers, previews your columns, and can write render links back to the same row when a run finishes.

Steal a working setup

Every template below is a public workflow you can copy into your workspace and turn on:

Included in every plan

Workflow runs use automation credits, and every plan includes a monthly allowance. The free plan comes with 15 runs to try it out, and one credit is only spent when a run actually produces something. Idle checks are free.

Get started

Open Workflows in your workspace sidebar and hit New Workflow, or start from a ready-made template. Workflows are also fully supported in the Orshot MCP server: agents like Claude can discover the building blocks, create and validate workflows, run them, and check their logs for you. If you can design it in Orshot, you can now ship it on autopilot.
