# Workflow Action: Add To Workflow

Adding a specific contact to separate workflows for sorting or continuing a process can be automated. Let’s say that your lead submitted a form with a custom field and you want that information to determine if they go to an autoresponder. Another contact completes a product and you want to send them to a workflow to offer them a supplementary course automatically. Or a contact books an appointment and you want to send a confirmation then transfer them to a flow to follow up until the event and pass the input parameters to this new flow. You can accomplish this with the Add To Workflow action we will go over this and how to use it.
