### Steps

1. Write the job as: when X happens in app A, do Y in app B.
2. Use the tool's AI builder to draft the workflow from that sentence.
3. Check each step and connect your accounts.
4. Run it once on a real example and check the result.
5. Turn it on and check it again after a week.

### Prompt

```
When {{trigger}} happens in {{app_a}}, I want {{action}} in {{app_b}}.
Build this as a workflow. Show me each step and what data passes between them before turning it on. Add a step that emails me if any step fails.
```
