Overview
Uncanny Automator is useful when two plugins on a site hold information that needs to pass between them. A recipe defines which events trigger the process and what happens next. It can connect forms, courses, memberships, and external tools, depending on available integrations. Before enabling it on a live site, decide whether the recipe is for a logged-in user or a visitor, and how to associate the action with the right account without creating duplicates.
