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 workflow. You describe the job to Atlas the way you would brief a colleague across the desk, and Atlas writes the plan, prices it, and starts it. The Workflows page gives you a running start with three template cards.
Starting from a template
The empty Workflows page shows three starting points: plan a month of content, launch a campaign, and a daily posting setup. Click one and a ready-made prompt lands straight in Atlas chat. You can edit it before you send, or send it as is.
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
Templates are optional. A direct request works just as well: 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. The daily posting template describes recurring automation, which is a different feature. The next lesson, on the boundary with Autopilot, explains why.
