Notes

  • An activity with no due_date is created as undated, which is what Pipedrive shows under 'no due date'.

See Create Activity run in a workflow.

In a technical demo we add the Pipedrive connection, drop the node on the canvas and let Workflow Health pre-flight it before the first real run.
