- Sign up for Conductor Deck, then add a You Need a Budget step to a workflow on the visual canvas. The builder walks you through the connection it needs — an account authorization or the required keys — right inside the step. No separate setup or code.
- Is it free?
- Yes — Conductor Deck has a free tier you can build and run workflows on, with no credit card required. Paid plans raise the monthly run limits and unlock advanced features when you need them.
- What's the difference between a trigger and an action?
