Actions are the building blocks of your workflow. They define what tasks your workflow will perform when triggered. Think of actions as the “what” of your workflow - they define the specific operations and tasks that will be executed in sequence. When building a workflow in the Workflows Builder, actions are added after selecting a trigger. The actions you choose will determine what your workflow actually does with the data it receives.

Adding Actions

To add an action, click the “Add Action” button in the workflow builder and select from the available action types.

Action Types

Available Actions

Leap provides a wide range of integrations with popular services through pre-built actions. Here are some examples of what you can do:

Communication

  • Send messages to Slack channels or users
  • Post notifications and updates

AI and Machine Learning

  • Generate text with Anthropic’s Claude
  • Create images using Fal.ai’s models
  • Generate content with OpenAI’s GPT models

Development Tools

  • Add comments to GitHub pull requests
  • Interact with repositories and issues
These are just a few examples from our growing library of actions. We continuously add new integrations and capabilities to help you build more powerful workflows.

Third-Party Service Integration

Leap Workflows integrates with third-party services through two authentication methods:

OAuth Authentication

For services like GitHub, Slack, and Google:
  1. Click “Connect Account”
  2. Log in to the service
  3. Authorize Leap’s access
OAuth provides secure access without sharing credentials.

API Key Authentication

For services requiring API keys:
  1. Generate a key from the service’s developer portal
  2. Add it to the action configuration
  3. Leap securely stores and uses the key

AI Service Cost Management

When using AI services (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.), providing your own API keys offers several benefits:
  • Direct billing from AI providers with no markup
  • Full control over spending and usage limits
  • Usage tracking through provider dashboards
  • Support for enterprise agreements and custom pricing
This ensures transparent cost management for AI-powered workflows.
