View + When + Actions
Every Workflow has three parts:- View. The saved view it watches. Any view over Accounts or People works.
- When. One of:
- Enters — fires the first time a record starts matching the view.
- Leaves — fires when a record that matched stops matching.
- Schedule — fires on a cron you set, over everyone in the view at that moment, as one digest.
- Actions. One or more things to do to each record that fired.
Actions
- Slack — post to a channel
- DM owner — Slack DM to the record’s owner
- Webhook
- Set tier
- Set owner
- Add tag — what used to be Set status. Add a tag from any group; a single-choice group swaps out the tag already there
- Add to list
- Dismiss
- CRM note — log a note on the matched CRM record
- CRM task — create a task for the owner in your CRM
- Push to CRM — create the company or contact if it isn’t there yet, skip if it already is
The fire guarantee
Clustr fires within 15 minutes of learning a fact, within two minutes for anything done in Clustr or your CRM. A LinkedIn signal landing is the slower path; a tag you set, a deal you moved, an intro you requested, or a stage change in your connected CRM is the fast one.The first pass after creating or turning on a Workflow fires nothing. It
records who’s already a member so only real transitions — entering or leaving
after that point — trigger an action. Turning a Workflow on over an existing view
with 500 Burning accounts in it does not send 500 Slack messages.
Building one
Open Workflows, pick New workflow, and either start from a template or build from scratch:- Pick the view, or create one from the picker.
- Choose Enters, Leaves, or Schedule.
- Add actions from the menu, one at a time.
- Save. If the view already has matching records, they’re seeded silently — nothing fires until the next real change.
Templates
Three Workflows are one click away for a new workspace:- Hot accounts — Score A+ or A, Burning → Slack channel
- New deal at an account we can reach — open deal, path at 75%+ → DM the CRM owner
- Competitor is here — a competitor present on the account → Slack channel
