Automation can be introduced to a Workflow to more accurately represent the process it models.

There are three types of events that trigger actions: the Transitions described earlier, and "event listeners" such as the creation of an artifact, or the updating of an artifact property.

For specific examples, see [Transitions as Triggers Workflow Example](docId\:EarNeipGOGAUCtgZkbdh5) and [Artifact Creation and Property Update Triggers Workflow Example](docId\:PqQgoQCS601f2ZGoKak1Y).
