# Automation

Automation runs work without a person asking. A process flow is several agents wired together by a manifest. A schedule runs an agent or process flow on a cron expression or at one moment. A trigger starts one when an event fires. A webhook makes Wexa call you when an ontology changes.

Reading needs `fabric:orchestrate.read` and changing needs `fabric:orchestrate.write`. Running a process flow needs `fabric:agent.run`, and deleting one `fabric:flow.delete`. Start with `create-process-flow`.
