Summary
Automations watch connector paths, trigger prompt presets, and deliver index exports for recurring VideoVector workflows.

Operational behavior
enabledcontrols whether the automation is configured for execution.pausedis the public temporary stop control.- Pause and resume preserve the configuration.
Internal automation trigger routes exist in the backend, but they are not part of the public integration surface and are intentionally excluded from this documentation set.

- Build the source and destination boundaries with Connectors.
- Use Import jobs and Exports for one-time operations.
Related documentation
VideoVector exposes a public workflow layer for storage integration and downstream delivery. This page explains connectors, jobs, automations, exports, and event delivery as one model.
This guide covers one-time import jobs and persistent index-level import automations that watch a storage location and trigger processing with a prompt preset.
Use exports to package result data for download or connector delivery, then use export automations when the handoff should persist per index.
