Routines: automations Lumo runs for you
Start a Routine from Blank, a template or Lumo, build its steps, save drafts and publish, switch it on, and read every run in History.
Frequently asked questions
What is a Routine?
Work Lumo runs for you. A Routine starts on an event, on a schedule, over a list of people or on a table, and each step runs exactly as set or with Lumo's judgement. Automations, Sequences and Relationship Assist are all Routines, under Routines in the sidebar.
Does editing a live Routine change what runs?
No. Edits are saved as a draft, and the list shows Unpublished changes. Only Publish makes the draft what runs.
Where do I see what a Routine did?
Routines > History lists every run you may see, newest first: runs, steps that list Routines carried out, and the judgements Lumo made at checkpoints. Select a row to see each step and its result.
How do I test a Routine before it runs?
Click Test in the builder. It walks the steps with sample data in Dry Run Mode and takes no real action. Execute Real Actions runs the published Routine for real, so it is refused while you have unpublished changes.
What does a Routine cost?
Only steps with a cost driver use Lumo credits: reasoning steps, Create with Lumo, web search and paid lookups. Actions, Query, Transform, Filter, Wait, For each and End are free.
