    1. Click on "Create a Workflow."

    2. Select the relevant action type: "Grant Private Channel Access" or "Revoke Private Channel Access"

  4. Test Your Workflow: Ensure that the workflow operates as expected by testing it in a controlled environment.

  5. Save and Activate: Once confirmed, save your workflow and activate it for use.

For instance, if a new member joins a book club community, you can set up a workflow that automatically grants them access to the "Book Upgrades" private channel. This ensures they receive immediate updates about upcoming discussions and can engage with other members right away.
