# Quickstart

> Build and publish your first workflow in minutes

# Quickstart

Use this guide to create and publish your first Impresiv workflow.

## 1. Open the dashboard

Go to [Impresiv Dashboard](https://impresivai.com/dashboard) and sign in.

## 2. Create a workflow

Select **New Flow**, then enter a clear name like **Send AI Summary to Slack**.

## 3. Add a trigger

Each workflow starts with one trigger. Common options:

* **Webhook**: start from an HTTP request
* **Schedule**: run on a fixed interval
* **Form**: run after user input

## 4. Add action nodes

Add the steps your workflow should perform:

* **AI Action** for model-based tasks
* **API Request** for external services
* **If / Else** for branching logic
* **Transform** for formatting and mapping data
* **Respond** to return output

## 5. Pass data between nodes

Map outputs from one node into another node input.

Example: use AI-generated text in a Slack message payload.

## 6. Test the workflow

Click **Run** (or send a test webhook event) and review execution logs step by step.

<Note>
  You can test and edit as many times as needed before publishing.
</Note>

## 7. Publish

When the flow is ready, click **Publish**.

The workflow is now live and will run whenever the trigger fires.
