What is the first step to add a button column automation to your board?

To add a button column automation to your board, the initial step involves incorporating the Button Column itself into the board. This is crucial because without the Button Column, there would be no mechanism in place for the automation to act upon. The Button Column serves as the trigger for the automation, allowing users to perform specific actions with a click. Once the Button Column is established, users can then proceed to define the automation rules that they wish to implement, thereby enhancing the functionality of the board.

Creating a group or sharing the board are processes that may be helpful for collaboration and organizing information, but they do not directly pertain to the setup of the Button Column and its associated automation. Directly accessing the automation menu is also necessary for configuration, but it comes after ensuring that the Button Column is present on the board. In this context, having the Button Column first is foundational to using any button-related automations effectively.
