I have a record that triggers the creation of up to 3 records. It may need to create any combination of those 3 (which is 7 possible combinations), which is proving convoluted with the options I know of with the automation options.
1) Have 3 different automations with the same trigger for each of the 3 records that might need to be created - i.e. automation 1 creates record a (if required), automation 2 creates record b (if required), automation 3 creates record c (if required).
2) Create 1 automation with the 7 different combinations as conditional actions. This is the set up I have now.
Option 1 is wasteful of automation runs and automation spaces for our plan.
Option 2 is convoluted and time consuming to set up.
It seems like there should be a more elegant way to do this? I'd like to know for future automations I may need to create, especially if they get more complex (each extra possible record to be created very quickly makes huge amounts of possible combinations).
Ideally, there'd be a way to toggle the automation conditional logic from "otherwise" so I don't need to create a condition for each possible scenario, and would rather have a single trigger that follows each of the conditions (i.e. if condition 1 is true, still check for conditions 2 and 3).
Is there something obvious I'm missing in terms of a more elegant solution?
