What is viaSocket?

viaSocket is an AI-powered workflow automation tool designed to simplify and enhance the way you manage tasks and integrate apps. With the capability to connect over 5000 applications, viaSocket streamlines complex processes and boosts productivity through seamless automation.

Folders

In viaSocket, folders serve as containers for organizing tasks or initiatives within a workspace. This feature allows you to group multiple related tasks under one workspace, streamlining the management of flows and interfaces for more efficient task organization.

User Management  

viaSocket provides robust team collaboration features, enabling seamless communication and coordination among team members within your workflows. These features help streamline processes, improve productivity, and ensure that everyone is aligned and informed.

Trigger Your Workflows

viaSocket offers multiple methods for triggering workflows, including:

• Webhooks: Users can set up webhooks to automatically trigger workflows based on events happening in external systems or applications. For example, a webhook could be set up to trigger a workflow whenever a new lead is added to a CRM system.

• App Integrations: viaSocket seamlessly integrates with popular apps and services, allowing users to trigger workflows based on actions within these applications. For instance, users can set up workflows to send automated emails when new entries are added to a Google Sheets spreadsheet.

• Cron: Users can schedule workflows to run at specific times or intervals using cron expressions. This enables users to automate tasks that need to be performed on a recurring basis, such as generating monthly reports or updating databases.

Built-in Tools

viaSocket provides a range of built-in tools to enhance workflow automation, including:

• Multiple Paths (If Conditions)
  Lets you branch your workflow based on conditions. Essentially, it checks if something is true or false and then routes the flow accordingly.

• Custom Logic (JS Code)
  Allows you to write and run your own JavaScript code to perform custom tasks or calculations within your flow.

• Variable
  Lets you store or transform data for use later in the workflow. Think of it like a container that holds a value you can reference.

• HTTP API Request
  Enables you to send and receive data from external services via API calls, integrating outside information into your flow.

• Human Intervention
  Pauses the automation so a person can manually review, approve, or input data before the flow continues.

• AI Step
  Lets you ask an AI model a question or prompt and then use its response to influence the next steps in the workflow.

• Memory
  Stores data from previous runs or steps, allowing you to recall and use that information later in the flow.

• Delay
  Pauses the workflow for a specified amount of time or until a condition is met, then continues processing.

• Comment
  A simple note or explanation to document and clarify parts of the workflow for anyone reading or editing it.

Embed

Embedding viaSocket into your application provides seamless automation features, enhancing productivity and extending functionality. With integrations across thousands of apps and services, users can automate workflows without leaving your platform. Customize the embedded interface to align with your branding, offering a cohesive and integrated user experience.

Automation Experts

Automation Experts in viaSocket are specialized agencies/freelancers with extensive knowledge of workflow automation. They design, implement, and optimize complex workflows, helping businesses fully leverage viaSocket's capabilities. By collaborating with these professionals, users can streamline processes, enhance productivity, and achieve optimal automation performance with personalized support and tailored solutions to meet their unique needs.

Ask AI

Ask AI in viaSocket uses advanced artificial intelligence to enhance your automation workflows. It provides smart recommendations, automates complex tasks, and optimizes performance, making your workflows more efficient and productive. For example, users can even ask the AI to build complete workflows based on their statements, or generate the code based on the requirement. Ask AI enables users to harness the power of AI to enhance automation workflows and improve decision-making processes.

Invocations

In viaSocket, each action counts as one invocation, while the initial trigger does not. Understanding and managing invocations is essential for optimizing resource use, controlling costs, and ensuring efficient workflow performance within your plan’s limits.

For example, if a lead submits a contact form, and ViaSocket adds the lead's details to your CRM and sends a Slack notification, it consumes two invocations.

Metrics

Metrics in viaSocket provide crucial data on workflow performance, tracking execution time, status, invocation count, error rates, and resource utilization. These insights help optimize efficiency, manage costs, improve reliability, and support scalability. By monitoring these metrics, you can make data-driven decisions to enhance and streamline your automation processes.

Notifications

​viaSocket allows users to select the apps through which they want to receive notifications about their workflows. This ensures that you stay informed about critical events such as failed steps, issues, and alerts, enabling you to take timely action and maintain smooth operations.

Whether you're looking to automate routine tasks, streamline complex operations, or integrate disparate systems, viaSocket provides the tools and flexibility to achieve your goals efficiently and effectively.

By combining AI with powerful integration capabilities, viaSocket empowers businesses to enhance efficiency, reduce manual effort, and focus on what truly matters: growing and innovating.
