Including beginner, intermediate, and advanced sections. Each module within the series is designed to bring you up to speed on the platform quickly. As you go through each of these sections you'll receive contextual information about how the tool works and the intricacies of implementation.
The material is a mix of text, images, how-to videos, interactive experiences, and ends with the next steps to get more involved. At the conclusion, you'll find additional research to learn outside of the University, as well as be able to build along with Tines specialists.

What is Tines?
Tines is an automation platform that allows you to build workflows using "stories", "actions", and "events".
Key pillars of Tines
Actions
Actions represent the individual steps that lead to completing an overall task.
Stories
Stories represent the overall use case that houses your actions. They automate an end-to-end workflow.
Events
Events are the data that is transferred between actions, flowing from the top action down through the story.
This video explains the basics of Tines, focusing on actions, the storyboard, and the properties panel.
