Triggers and actions for Sub-Workflows

A trigger is the Sub-Workflows event that starts a workflow. An action is what FlowMattic does in Sub-Workflows from a step.

Event	What it does	Type
Start Sub-Workflow	Triggered when this sub-workflow is called from a parent workflow	Trigger
Call Sub-Workflow	Execute a sub-workflow and receive its response data	Action
Return Response	Return data from this sub-workflow back to the parent workflow. This should be the last step in a sub-workflow	Action

Three steps to a running Sub-Workflows workflow

The builder keeps the order you think in: connect the app, choose what starts the workflow, add what should happen.

Connect
Authorise Sub-Workflows once
Add a Sub-Workflows connection under Connects and reuse it in every workflow. Credentials stay in your WordPress database.
Trigger
Pick what starts it
Start from a Sub-Workflows event, or from a WordPress event, a form, a webhook, a schedule or any of the 918+ integrations, then capture a sample so later steps can map real fields.
Act
Add Sub-Workflows steps and logic
Chain Sub-Workflows actions with Router, Filter, Iterator and Delay, test each step against captured data, then switch the workflow on.
