Automations End of Life delayed until "TBD"
Quickbase October 2022 Release Notes
Automations not reaching End of Life in January 2023
The next phase in our Automations retirement journey is the End of Life phase. This is the final phase, when the Automations feature will be completely removed from the product. Pipelines is the future of automation and integration in Quickbase. It supports both orchestrating workflows within Quickbase and integrating workflows across your tech ecosystem, all in one place.
To prepare for the End of Life of Automations, we gathered feedback from many of you on how you plan to continue creating new no-code workflows. This uncovered an opportunity for several key improvements to Pipelines, which will replace Automations. These improvements will make it easier to build and govern pipelines, and help pipelines run faster than ever before. We also heard that you needed more time to accomplish the task of migrating your existing automated workflows over into Pipelines. Based on the feedback we gathered from many of our customers, we believe this extension in the End of Life timeline will successfully allow for you to plan and accomplish your migrations. For more information, please refer to our Community post about the phases and timeline for the Automations retirement project. As a reminder, Quickbase Automations is no longer a supported feature. Therefore, it is no longer possible to create new automations. We recommend that you continue to migrate any remaining automations you have to pipelines. To learn more about migrating to Pipelines, please see this community post. In addition, we've created a brand-new workshop called How to get from A to P which is designed to teach Pipelines to those familiar with using Automations.
We will share more details on the timeline for Automations End of Life in upcoming release notes.
(my bolding added)
You will have at least six months notice to prepare for the new End of Life date.
