Reordering Automations in Zendesk
How can I reorder automations in Zendesk?
Reordering automations in Zendesk is important because they run sequentially every hour. To reorder them, go to the Admin Center, click 'Objects and rules', then 'Business rules > Automations'. Open the options menu at the top of the list of active automations and click 'Reorder page'.
You can then click and drag automations to new positions as needed. Once you're satisfied with the order, click 'Save'. Keep in mind that the order can affect how actions in one automation might impact another.
