🆕 Action · Display a message on a web page · Workflow Automation

[Leo]

We are pleased to announce that Display a message on a web page is now part of Supercharged Workflow Automations.

Overview

In order to run the “Display message” action, a “Web link clicked” trigger is the event that starts the automation.

The action “Display message” allows you to show a custom message after someone clicked on Tape´s web link. With the fullscreen mode of the text editor, you can select even more format options or just add media.
