Abstract:
Media, system, and method for providing encryption key management to an automated workflow within a group-based communication system. The automated workflow is encrypted using an organization-specific encryption key and is stored in a data store. Responsive to a triggering event, the encrypted workflow is retrieved from the data store to be decrypted and a corresponding decryption key is retrieved from a key store. The decrypted workflow performs a series of steps responsive to determining that a trigger condition has been met. The steps may be associated with at least one of sending a form and sending a message to a user within the group-based communication system.
