In this article, we will walk through how to use the Update Affiliate workflow action. This is useful to automate adding Affiliates to the Affiliate Manager.

Step 1: Start a new workflow or edit an existing one

Step 2: Set up applicable Workflow Trigger(s). We have multiple articles available to explain the setup of each of the Workflow Triggers. Feel free to review our articles on these for more information on setting these up.

Pro Tip: You can use any Workflow Triggers to trigger the Update Affiliate action or you could leave this workflow without any triggers.

Step 3: Setting up the Update Affiliate Action

• Click on the “+” symbol below the trigger to add an action.

• Under Actions, select Update Affiliate Manager in the Affiliate  section of the Actions Menu or use the search feature

• Select whether or not to mark as active or inactive

• Press Save in the bottom right corner of the Action setup menu

Step 4: Press Save in the top right corner of your browser to save the workflow

• If your Workflow is ready to be enabled, make sure the toggle switch under Save is set to Publish
• Be sure to test your Workflow to make sure it is set up correctly using the Test Workflow button next to the Publish toggle switch.
