What are we waiting for on this release already? I was told at the LevelUp summit "It's going to be two weeks" for workflow automation. This feature is pointless without automation. Can someone update us?

Bill KimberlinI agree. I am hesitant to implement custom objects without automations. I am sure it is coming.

They're coming soon. GHL always rolls out MVP first and then adds. But I agree, triggers and actions will definitely help.

Objects are cool, but severely limited without automations and triggers.

What can you do with a Custom Object besides create it. I would like it if GHL had their senior support team make a couple of 2 minute videos telling what custom objects can be used to accomplish -- use cases, then another video how to create a custom object & some examples

Objects are useless with out automation. It is easier to use MongoDB or something with out at least having API access to objects. Please fix this ASAP . Even just the API if not Actual workflow actions and triggers.

Without triggers and actions, custom objects are essentially just static data containers, limiting their potential to support workflows, automation, and integration

Please prioritize this asap. Without the automations pieces objects are just going to create a manual process nightmare. We need triggers based on object record creation, a custom field change in the object, and an association added to an object all with filters so we can be specific. As far as actions, the things that come to mind are add object record, add/remove object association, update object value, assign tasks to objects.
Thanks. These objects will be a game changer

I hope this is a planned feature.
Example use case:
Custom Object: Student (minors, under 18)
Association: Contact (Parent/Guardian)
When a parent fills out a form (either through GHL or external (webhook), and I have a field for 'student's name' I need to be able to do a few things:
- Automatically create a new 'student' in the custom objects
- Automatically create an association between the parent (contact) and the student (custom object).
- Ideally, if I alsohave a form field where they can select a 'teacher' be able to create an additional association to another contact card, under a different association.
I am VERY excited about the new custom objects, but without workflow automations their use is very limited.
