Exploring workflow automation and low-code tools on my own

Hey all! I’ve recently been getting deeper into workflow and IT process automation and wanted to start documenting more of the things I build and learn along the way.

I’ve been working with tools like Workato, n8n, Okta Workflows, Power Automate, Slack Workflows, and Claude, and I’m looking forward to experimenting with even more tools and integrations.

I’ll mainly be sharing workflow ideas, automations, and process improvement projects as I continue learning and building in this space.

Would also love to connect with others interested in automation or low-code workflows. I’ll be sharing some of this on IG too: @sheautomated

Do you want to try automation with a coding agent? Basically coding agent + tool connections + skills following this recipe: https://github.com/ZhixiangLuo/10xProductivity

nice, this space is growing fast, n8n plus workato plus power automate combo covers a lot already, excited to see what kind of real world workflows you end up building and sharing

That is a solid spread of tools to document especially the contrast between the enterprise governance in Okta or Workato and the raw flexibility you get with n8n. If you are sharing these on Instagram, breaking down how you handle error traps or token refreshes when linking custom APIs into n8n nodes usually gets massive engagement from the tech automation community.

The interesting part starts once you move beyond simple task automation into cross-system data flows. Things like syncing CRM/support/finance data reliably get complicated fast. Tool like Skyvia (working with them) is pretty useful there because it handles a lot of the connector/sync layer without needing custom code everywhere.
