Launch Workflows
Launch Workflows from the Meraki Dashboard
The Automation menu in the Meraki dashboard uses Cisco Workflows to help users automate and streamline tasks across the Cisco portfolio and third-party systems. Workflows enable users to automate a wide range of tasks, such as data transformation, system integration, and conditional actions, by combining activities in a visual editor.
Workflows can be accessed without any license and you do not need to be a Meraki customer to benefit from the value of Workflows. To learn more about how to begin using workflows, see the Getting Started section.
