Creating Your First Automation – A Practical Guide

The best way to understand the capabilities of Pinokio is to create your first, simple automation. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the process of creating a basic workflow that automatically generates content ideas based on a given topic.

Step 1: Creating a New Project

1. From the Pinokio dashboard, click the “New Project” button or select “Projects” → “Create New” from the side menu
2. Choose the “Empty Project” option (you can also start from a template, but for learning purposes, it’s better to start from scratch)
3. Give the project a name, e.g., “Content Ideas Generator”
4. Optionally add a project description and choose a category
5. Click “Create” to proceed to the workflow editor

Step 2: Designing the Workflow

After creating the project, you’ll see an empty workspace. Now we’ll design a workflow consisting of several basic blocks:

1. Add an input block
   • From the component library (usually on the left side) drag the “Input Form” element onto the workspace
   • In the properties inspector, give it a label “Content Topic”
   • Configure the input type as “Text” with an appropriate placeholder, e.g., “Enter a topic for which you want to generate ideas”
2. Add an AI processing block
   • From the “AI Models” section in the component library, drag the element corresponding to a language model (e.g., “GPT-4”, “Claude”, or another available model)
   • Connect the output of the input block to the input of the AI block by dragging a line between the corresponding connection points
   • In the properties inspector, configure the prompt for the AI model:
   Generate 5 creative content ideas related to the topic: {{input}} For each idea, provide: 1. Catchy title 2. Brief description (1-2 sentences) 3. Potential target audience The ideas should be diverse and cover different content formats.
3. Add a formatting block
   • From the “Text Processing” section, drag the “Markdown Formatter” element
   • Connect the output of the AI block to the input of the formatter
   • In the formatter settings, choose the style that best suits the presentation of a list of ideas
4. Add an output block
   • From the component library, drag the “Output Display” element onto the workspace
   • Connect the output of the formatter to the output block
   • In the settings, specify the title displayed above the results, e.g., “Your Content Ideas”

Step 3: Testing the Automation

After designing the workflow, it’s time to test it:

1. Click the “Save” button or use the Ctrl+S (Cmd+S on macOS) shortcut to save the project
2. Click the “Test” button or switch to testing mode
3. In the input form, enter a sample topic, e.g., “healthy eating”
4. Click “Run” or “Submit” to start the automation process
5. Observe how data flows through the individual blocks (Pinokio usually visualizes this process)
6. After completion, check the results in the output block

Step 4: Expansion and Optimization

After a successful first test, you can expand your automation with additional features:

1. Add a condition block
   • You can add branching that will generate different types of ideas depending on the entered topic
   • From the “Logic” section, drag the “Condition” element and place it between the input block and the AI block
   • Configure conditions, e.g., checking if the topic relates to business, health, technology, etc.
2. Implement result saving
   • Add a “Save to File” or “Database Storage” block to save the generated ideas
   • Connect it in parallel with the output block (output from the formatter should go to both display and saving)
3. Add a notification block (optional)
   • If you want to receive notifications about completed automations, add a “Notification” block
   • Configure it to send an email or in-app notification after generating ideas

Step 5: Publication and Sharing

When your automation works as expected, you can publish and share it:

1. Click the “Publish” button or select the option from the project menu
2. Choose whether the automation should be:
   • Private (available only to you)
   • Shared with specific users/teams
   • Public (available to all Pinokio users)
3. Add tags and a category to facilitate searching
4. Optionally, write a brief description or documentation about using your automation
5. Click “Publish” to complete the process

“The first automation is like a child’s first step – it may be uncertain, but it opens up a whole new world of possibilities. The most important thing is to start, and then progressively refine your skills.” – Mark Thompson, trainer at Pinokio Academy.

An interesting fact is that the most popular first automation among new Pinokio users is precisely a content idea generator, but in various variants adapted to specific industries.
