Uncanny Automator – Easy Automation, Integration, Webhooks & Workflow Builder Plugin
By Uncanny Owl
Description
Uncanny Automator is the easiest and most powerful way to automate your WordPress site with no code. Build automations in minutes that connect your WordPress plugins, sites, and apps together using billions of recipe combinations.
When something happens, Automator can make other things happen. For example, when a user buys a product, you can add them to a membership level, enroll them in a course, and pass their information to Google Sheets.
Improve customer engagement by having your purchases trigger marketing automation campaigns, award store credit, promote 5-star reviews, schedule time-limited bonus offers, and offer profile-driven discounts. Create WooCommerce automations that send purchase details to Google Sheets, Slack, and ActiveCampaign with our native integrations.
Uncanny Automator offers powerful reports and dashboards based on almost any WordPress activity or data with 1-click Google Sheets integration. Track purchases, course completions, blog post updates, forum posts, and more.
Looking for comprehensive webhook support? Uncanny Automator has you covered with support for security headers, any request method, and any data format. Use our 1-click sample generation and debug records to simplify connecting to other sites and systems.
With Uncanny Automator, you can personalize student experiences and deliver better learning outcomes with no-code automations. Notify instructors when users fail a quiz and enroll them in remedial courses automatically.
Spend less time sharing your posts and announcements on social media with automatic posting to platforms like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram. The free version of Automator is powerful and comes with built-in automation and integration support for many popular apps and WordPress plugins.

It took me some time to work it out with WP Forms but once I had it working it was great, so easy to link with Google Sheets and make a list rather than relying on emails or messages and then sort them out. Its too expensive to buy for using once or twice a year, its a pity they don’t e.g. pay for a 1000 uses?

Instagram can be a real headache! After having some trouble with automated postings to Instagram, the team helped me investigate. We found out that the error is actually on Instagram’s side—not my website, host, database, or firewall. While we encountered a few small bugs along the way that made the investigation tricky, the support was very helpful. The company behind this plugin is highly professional. The code is clean, the plugin is well-documented, and the engineers clearly know what they are doing. Can’t wait until Instagram gets their side fixed, but I’m sticking with Automator!”

I use the Thrive Themes product, Thrive Automator. It’s great. But Thrive took the decision to sunset Automator and plug their sister product Uncanny Automator instead. However, using Uncanny Automator is uncannily like going back in time to a place of deficient plugins that promise everything and deliver nothing. Uncanny Automator is cumbersome, awkward and seemingly incapable of integrating with Wordpress and Thrive Apprentice. It’s little short of a disaster substitute for the cleverness and subtlety of Thrive Automator. Expect to waste time trying to get it to work functionally.

Great tool and support! Have been using Automator successfully for years to connect my two wordpress instances (an eCom site and a learning management system) – and have gradually expanded the level of automation on both sites. The Automator Plugin is like a Swiss Army knife, once you get the hang of how to use it. And in case you get stuck on setting up or troubleshooting a recipe the Support team is very helpful in solving any questions you have. Many thanks for the recent two solutions (on importing LMS groups users and auto registering group members to an event)
