January 2025 Roundup: Workflows launch, new integrations & more
We started the new year off with some prolific, high-impact launches—from a major feature like Workflows to more subtle improvements through new third-party integrations. We hosted some awesome events with Experts and the Glide team, published incredible automation guides on the blog, and more.
Ready for the January roundup? Let's go.
Introducing Workflows: automation in Glide
We kicked off 2025 by launching Workflows, making Glide a full-stack engineering environment where you can build your app's layout, connect it to your business data, and now, automate your processes all from one central operating system: your Glide app. Workflows launched with three powerful triggers. Email trigger, Webhook trigger, and Schedule trigger—with more new triggers on the horizon. Welcome to automation heaven.
Event: Glide Next → Workflows
Glide's own Andy Claremont and Evan Furniss hosted a helpful event about our new Workflows functionality on January 15th. During the event, they gave users an overview of the Workflows editor experience, showed us how to use the new schedule, email, and webhook trigger, and even offered up some practical use cases for automation in Glide.?
Loops: Workflows Demo by David
Glide's CEO David Siegel was so thrilled about the launch of Workflows, he released a number of video demos showcasing different aspects of the new automation feature in Glide. In this demo, David presents the powerful capability of nested loops—a subtle, but extremely complex function in the Workflows editor.
New Integration: Koala?
With the new Koala integration in Glide, you can monitor your app activity and analyze sales prospect intent in real-time. We also launched an ElevenLabs integration so you can generate speech from text using AI, and an OpenGraph integration so you can fetch metadata from any website URL in your Glide apps.
