02Architectural Blueprint

Two types of automations — built for distinct needs.

Not every task requires a complex 10-step diagram. Rules keep internal work effortless, while Flows handle external integrations.

Rules · Internal SystemsEasy & Fast

Internal Unobits Automations

Rules listen to native system events across Chat, CRM, Projects, Invoices, and Files. When an event fires, optional condition clauses evaluate the context and trigger immediate internal actions.

Native Internal System Events: Trigger rules directly on internal workspace events — new chat attachments, completed tasks, paid invoices, or deal stage changes.
Zero-Code & Zero Latency: Rules execute instantly inside the UNOBITS relational engine without waiting on third-party polling or external HTTP roundtrips.
Condition Clauses & Scope Filters: Specify conversation IDs, group scopes, user roles, or file metadata rules so automations only run when conditions match.
One-Click Flow Upgrade: Need multi-step branching or external API calls later? Convert any simple Rule into a visual Flow with one click.
Flows · External & WebhooksComplex & Branching

Multi-Node Visual Integration Workflows

Flows provide a full visual drag-and-drop canvas for complex operations involving external webhooks, third-party app connectors (GitHub, Resend, Airtable, Amazon S3), payload formatting, and multi-step branching.

Visual Node Graph Canvas: Drag-and-drop canvas connecting triggers, template formatters, condition branches, and action nodes with bezier links.
Webhooks & External Tools: Listen for inbound webhooks or push data out to external tools like GitHub, Resend, Airtable, Amazon S3, and Slack.
Payload Mapping & Formatter Nodes: Transform raw JSON payloads, format email templates, and map dynamic variables between external apps and UNOBITS records.
Runtime Step Debugger & Logs: Inspect step-by-step execution traces, variable payloads, and timing metrics across every run cycle.
03Event Socket Infrastructure

The Workspace Plug Engine.

A dedicated real-time socket engine that monitors live plugs, routes system events, and tracks health diagnostics without external middleware overhead.

Active Socket Plugs

Connect your internal modules (Chats, Connectors, Files, External tools) to output channels with instant event dispatching.

Webhooks & Connectors

Plug into third-party connectors like Resend, Airtable, Amazon S3, and Arc with automated health status checks.
