Automations: templates
In sales, as in life, time is the most valuable resource we have. Pipedrive’s automation templates help you preserve this resource by making it even easier to automate certain tasks in your sales process.
These templates serve as ready-made automations that can be implemented quickly and with minimal effort, allowing you to use your time on what matters.
Templates are also a great way for you to get comfortable and proficient with our automation feature if you’re new to Pipedrive.
To access the templates, go to “...” (More) > Automation > Templates in your Pipedrive account.
How to use templates
From the automations page, click “Templates“ to reveal available ready-made automations, curated by type and collections. Find the process you wish to automate from this selection and click on the template to begin configuring your chosen automations.
The template setup dialog will ask for all the details the automation requires. Simply make your selections and click “Save as draft”.
Once saved, your automation is active and you can get back to doing what you do best, assisted by your new time-saving automation.
All template-created automations can be edited from the automation page at any time.
If you create the automation, it will appear in the “Owned by me” filter. Automations created by colleagues will appear under “Owned by others”. Automations created by templates will behave just like the automations you create from scratch.
Available templates
Pipedrive offers 36 pre-made automation templates, categorized by collection.
Each of these powerful templates allows for customization within the template and additional customization once completed.
