# Albato
To create an automation, you need to have an Albato account. You can go to the Albato page from your Boomerang account: go to the integration section and find "Albato", click "Connect".
Sign in or create an account.
In the "Automations" section of your Albato account, click "Create a new automation".
On the automation creation page you can enter a name for the automation. Automation steps will be displayed in the center.
Automations in Albato start with a trigger - an event that starts a chain of actions. The second and next steps are the actions that happen on our trigger.
Click "Add a Trigger", find the Boomerang application in the drop-down list.
Select the desired event (our trigger) from the dropdown list.
Now we need to connect our Boomerang account. Click " + Add a connection ".
Paste the Api Key from our personal Boomerang account into the model window and click continue.
Click "Add an action", find the Boomerang application in the drop-down list.
Select an action from the drop-down list, such as "Issue card".
In the next modal window fill in the required fields. Select "Template ID" from the drop-down list and map to the "Customer ID" field. \
Click "Save".
You can add the following actions.
When the automation is ready, click "Start".
Our automation is ready and is displayed in the "Automations" section.
