Build your own automation. Rehearse it before it runs.
An administrator writes an automation as a sentence: When, Only if, Then. Each step is marked Automatic, Asks first or Task for staff. Before it goes on, try it on up to the last 90 days and see when it would run, when it would skip and why. Nothing is executed.

- When, Only if, Then
- Rehearsal on up to 90 days
- A rehearsal executes nothing
- Skipped steps are in the run story
Try it: build a rule, then try it on the last days
Choose what starts it, add a condition, decide who carries out each step. Then rehearse it and read one run.

How it works
- 01
When, Only if, Then
“When” is the event that starts the automation. “Only if” narrows it down. “Then” are the steps that follow.
- 02
Every step says who does it
Automatic: Livion does it. Asks first: someone approves before it happens. Task for staff: it is filed as a task.
- 03
Branch, wait, repeat
A branch takes a different path, a wait holds a run for up to 30 days, and “for each” repeats steps over up to 50 items. Automations that start one another stop at a depth of three.
- 04
Rehearse on your own past
“Try on the last N days” goes back up to 90 days and lists every occurrence as Would run or Would skip, with the reason. Nothing is executed.
- 05
Every run tells its story
A run is told step by step, skipped steps included. Each change to an automation is kept as a revision, and after five failures the automation is paused automatically.

Questions
Does a rehearsal change anything in the hotel?
No. It shows what the steps would have done. Nothing is executed.
How far back can I rehearse?
Up to the last 90 days.
Can I describe the automation instead of building it?
Yes. Describe it in your own words and Nebbia drafts it. Whatever it could not include appears in a “Left out” list. You check and change the draft yourself.
What can start an automation?
A checkout in your PMS, events in Rooms, Maintenance, IT, Restaurant, Warehouse and Checklists, a declined shift, a concierge task, a bulletin waiting to be acknowledged. An automation can also start on a schedule, by hand or by an incoming webhook.
Who can build automations?
Administrators build and edit them.
