[Automations] Possibility to organize automations in folders

Hi there, it would be very useful if all created automations could be archived in separate and custom-organized folders (so that we can organize them more effectively for quicker access). Currently, all automations are displayed on a single screen with an ordering logic that I haven't quite figured out yet (possibly based on the most recent modification).

I agree, when you have many different Automations, it can be hard to find which one or group you may need to update.  Sifting through the long list makes it challenging to find.  Organizing by folders would be wonderful.  This folder idea should be applied not only at the Space automation level but the Account Automation level as well.

We would also love the ability to either organize/group automations. I would even add to that to consider mirroring Workato in allowing the user to custom title an automation

Agreed. Lacking a specific "dedicated" rule search function makes it challenging to locate particular rules for updating. With numerous automations in our team's toolkit, having the ability to search using keywords would greatly facilitate the process of finding and updating the ones we need.

This would be a huge help for us, or at the very least having a dedicated search option to search for specific rules. We currently have over 100 rules just for 1 space and those numbers are growing across our entire instance.  So having this feature would make it easier and quicker to make minor updates to specific rules.

I'd also like to see something like this for Custom Fields!

Hi Danielle Brancard! Have you tried using the custom field management panel for this purpose?

Our list of automations are growing and we would love to be able to organize them in folders!

This is something I really need! With the added automation tools I am approaching 150 automations. Having a folder structure would be HUGE. 

Additionally, I would love the capability to add a description to each automation to help document the purpose of the rule.

Any update on this functionality? I agree with Bethany's comment above - I too have so many automations it is hard to find ones that I need to modify etc.

 

And, could the automation title have the ability to wrap? It cuts off and you can't see the full name of the automation. This would prove very helpful in addition to a folder structure and description field.

Hi Nick Hofmeyer 👋  Thank you for reaching out and supporting Bethany's comment. As of now, there are no new updates for this suggestion. We will be sure to get back to you if there are any improvements in the coming months.
 
To view the full automation title, you can hover your cursor over it, and the full length of the title will be displayed. I've attached a screenshot below for your reference. Does this help you?

Rohan V thank you for following up - I was told in a conversation with one of Wrike's reps that organizing automations was being worked on by your Product team - is that not the case?

Viewing the full title with a hover is not helpful to find specific automations that need to be adjusted. We have over 100 automations, so wrapping the title text would allow for a command + F function to search for a keyword on the page. Right now, the keyword can't be found as it is often cut off. Even better would be a search function built within the automation page in Wrike to find automations, in addition to being able to organize them.

Hi Nick Hofmeyer 👋  Thank you for getting back to me and providing additional information about your current situation with Automations. Unfortunately, we don't have an exact ETA for this at the moment. However, if there are any updates in the upcoming months, I will be sure to let you know.
