The three Bardeen commands

‍

Playbooks consist of several individual actions that we call “commands.” Bardeen has three types of commands, each designed for different purposes:

‍

DO - perform an action

GET - retrieve information from a web app or website

WHEN - automatically run a playbook or an action when a condition is me

‍

💡 You can write commands in the “Compose” tab and then click “New playbook” to create one with those commands.

‍

You can explore all commands for individual apps by navigating to Settings > Commands.

You have to add apps first to see the commands they can perform. 

‍

‍

DO - Perform an action

‍

Examples: 

• Do create an event... 
• Do add a new card to Trello...
• Do add Github issue to repo...

‍

GET - Retrieve data from your web apps or the current page
