How this workflow works, step by step

  1. 1 Trigger Contract signed

    The workflow starts when docusign signals "contract signed". Carly is listening continuously, so the run begins within seconds of the event.

  2. 2 Action File PDF

    Finally Carly takes action in dropbox: file pdf. This is the thing that actually moves the world.

  3. 3 Action Update deal

    Finally Carly takes action in HubSpot: update deal. This is the thing that actually moves the world.

  4. 4 Action Notify owner

    Finally Carly takes action in Slack: notify owner. This is the thing that actually moves the world.

When to use this template

  • You want this work to happen consistently without anyone remembering to do it.
  • You're already using docusign and dropbox, and the manual version of this is eating real minutes a week.
  • You want a visible canvas you can audit and edit — not a black-box agent doing things you can't see.

When not to use it

  • This task only happens once or twice a month — the setup cost won't pay back.
  • The decision in the middle of the flow needs human judgment every single time, not just on edge cases.
  • Your stack doesn't include any of the apps above and you don't want to wire a generic HTTP step.

Questions teams ask before building this

How long does this workflow take to set up?

Most teams have "Signed contract → Dropbox + CRM update" running in under 10 minutes. Copy the prompt on this page into an email to carly@usecarly.com and Carly wires the workflow together for you, including authenticating docusign.

Can I edit this template after Carly builds it?

Yes. Every workflow lives on the Carly canvas where you can rename steps, change conditions, swap LLM models, add filters, and re-route branches. Templates are starting points, not locked recipes.

What if I use a different tool than the ones in this template?

Carly connects to 200+ tools, plus a generic HTTP node for any API that doesn't have a native integration. Tell Carly your stack when you send the prompt and she'll pick the right connectors.

Does this run automatically once it's built?

Yes. The trigger at the start of the workflow fires automatically — on a schedule, on an inbound email, on a webhook, on a calendar event, whatever this template specifies. Carly handles the listening; you only step in when a step is gated on you.

Does this workflow cost anything to run?

This template has no AI step, so it runs free — no subscription required. Carly only charges when a workflow step calls an AI model, and this one doesn't. Build it, set it on whatever trigger you like, and it keeps running at no cost.
