Automation Engine
Automations make the LMS work in the background: inactivity reminders, progress reminders, assignment due/overdue alerts, failed quiz reminders, certificate auto-issue, scheduled emails, notification rules, run history, and AI-suggested workflows.
Rule Builder
| Part | Examples |
|---|---|
| Triggers | Inactive N days, progress below threshold, assignment due soon, failed quiz, certificate eligible, payment failed, live lesson upcoming, enrollment expiring. |
| Conditions | Academy, course, instructor, category, enrollment, progress, last activity, score band, assignment status, certificate status, payment status. |
| Actions | Database notification, email, learning insight, intervention card, staff alert, certificate auto-issue, Ask LMS summary note, follow-up reminder. |
| Safety | Preview does not mutate; cooldown and max sends prevent duplicate reminders; certificate issue respects eligibility. |
