Pega-supplied automations
Learn about the types of automations offered by Pega. Automations are Pega-supplied rules that you can use in Case Designer, flows, and activities to perform specific tasks, for example, to move a case to the next stage or send an email.
The following is a list of Pega-supplied automations. You can view an automation rule to understand its inputs, outputs, and implementation. For more information, see Viewing automations.
