Automations [Beta]

Schedule recurring project actions like creating tickets, launching implementations, and sending agent messages.

This feature is in private beta. Please reach out if you'd like to participate!

Automations let Superconductor run recurring project actions on a schedule. They can create recurring tickets, launch implementations on starred tickets, or send messages to starred implementations.

Have another recurring action in mind? Reach out and tell us what you'd like Automations to do next.

Creating an automation

Once enabled in your project, an Automations link appears in the project navigation bar.

From your project, open Automations and click New automation.

New automation form showing schedule, action type, ticket description, and auto-launch settings

Configure the schedule:

  • Every hour - runs once per hour
  • Every day - runs once per day at the selected time
  • Every weekday - runs Monday through Friday at the selected time
  • Every week - runs on the selected day and time

For daily, weekday, and weekly schedules, choose the Time. Weekly schedules also include a Day field. New automations use your browser timezone.

Configure the Action. Automations currently support three action types:

  • Create a new ticket - use a ticket description as the prompt. You can also enable Auto-launch an implementation and choose which agent profile should work on the new ticket.
  • Launch an implementation - choose a starred ticket and an agent profile. The automation starts that agent on the selected ticket each time it runs.
  • Send a message - choose a starred implementation and enter the message Superconductor should send to the agent.

For actions that target an existing ticket or implementation, star the item first so it appears in the automation form.

Click Create to save the automation. Superconductor auto-generates a title from the action.

Managing automations

The Automations page shows each automation's title, schedule, next run time, and latest run status.

From this page, you can:

  • Toggle an automation on or off
  • Click an automation row to edit it
  • Click History to view past runs
  • Delete an automation

When editing an automation, you can change the title, schedule, action type, and action settings. Click Save when you're done.

Run history

Open History to see every run for an automation. You can also click Run now to start a manual run immediately.

Each run shows when it started, what it did, and its status:

StatusMeaning
PendingThe run has been queued
RunningSuperconductor is running the action
CompletedThe action finished successfully
FailedSomething went wrong. Let us know if you see this

Runs link directly to the tickets, implementations, or messages they created or updated.
