Authoring a workflow in Atlas chat
Start a workflow by describing the goal to Atlas, using a template or your own words.

Workflows
No form to fill
You do not fill out fields to start a long job. You describe it to Atlas the way you would brief a colleague across the desk, and Atlas writes the plan, prices it, and starts it.
A good first request
Name three things: which creatives, or what to make, how many days to spread them over, and which platforms. For example: "Make five static ads for the spring sale, then schedule them across the next two weeks on Instagram and Facebook." Atlas asks before it spends credits on renders.
Connect channels first
Scheduling organic posts needs connected social channels. Atlas checks which channels you have connected before it plans, and it only schedules to the platforms that come back connected. If nothing is connected, the workflow has nowhere to post, so connect a channel on the Integrations page before you start.
Writing your own
You can also point at work you already have: tell Atlas to schedule a specific set of creatives across a number of days on named platforms, or to generate a batch and then schedule it. Atlas reads the right shape from what you asked for. Give it the span in days and the platforms, and it fills in the rest.
One caution. If what you want repeats, like a post every weekday morning, that is not a long job. It belongs in Autopilot, which the last lesson covers.
