What we took out

Cleaned before anything was stored

These files carry more of whoever built them than is obvious. All of it is stripped, and every file was checked, not sampled. Where an author left a live document behind, it is replaced with the placeholder the careful ones used, so you can still see what belongs there.

Q&A

What are these?

Working automations: the definition of each, ready to import, with a description composed from its own steps.

Why are some descriptions unflattering?

Because they say what the workflow does. One that is four steps and a webhook is described as four steps and a webhook, so you can decide from the page whether it is worth your afternoon.

What was removed from the files?

Instance identifiers, canvas notes with personal links and email addresses, saved credential names, and live documents left in by their authors. Every file was checked, not sampled.

What do I need to run them?

A workflow automation tool that imports these definitions. Each imports as it is; you add your own credentials.
