Automations Visual Change: visualize active vs inactive automations better
I would love to see some opacity of inactive automations to better visualize active automations vs inactive/unused/in-dev automations. Since there is no grouping or folder structure to help organize automations, visualizing the cards is the next best method. I have added a picture below as a reference. Very small change,…
Automations Need better management, troubleshooting and Standard Development Features
The automations are a "decent start" but they leave a lot to be desired … We recently had a problem because Pipedrive changed how the Slack integration works.Instead of being notified about this, we only found it because I was doing some updates and saw that one of our users' automations were failing. When I reached out to…

Feature Request: Automations with Import Function
Are you considering allowing automations to work with the import function? For example, uploading a list of deal IDs to trigger specific automations.

Feature Suggestion - due dates relative to expected close date
It would be a game changer for our business to have the capability to make due dates relative to the expected close date. We are caterers and we use the expected close date as the event date.

Automation cannot read/write Date Range fields
I realized that Workflow Automations cannot access Date Range fields. They are just not visible when selecting the fields to update, e.g., on a deal. This is really annoying, because it means I cannot set the license period for our auto-generated license-renewal deals and have to rely on everyone to remember to do this…
Automations Needs an "Everyone" Filter Option
As an Admin, I need to be able to see all Automations that are built, and be able to sort and look at all the Automations in one place.

Automatic lead archiving
Hi everyone, I'm new to Pipedrive and to be honest I'm also a bit new to using a CRM. I used to use Hubspot but switched to Pipedrive as it was far too complex.

Automations should be editable by Global Admins
We are rolling out Pipedrive Automations to more of our teams, and noticed that Global Admins are only able to edit the Automations that they built!
