Retool Workflows
Build, schedule, and monitor your jobs, alerts, and ETL tasks.
Retool Workflows enables you to build complex automations that interact with your data sources. A workflow chains together pre-built blocks of SQL and JavaScript that can query and transform data, perform API requests, and run additional logic.
