Pattern Decisions This Source Supports
| Pattern | Supported decision | Required contract | Claim note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Automation rule builder | Choose automation rule builder when the primary job is authoring a reusable rule with trigger, condition, action, activation, and future runtime behavior. | The rule cannot be activated until trigger, condition, action, owner, permissions, and required validation pass. | Supports user-visible workflow triggers, trigger scope, frequency, and escalation examples. |
| Reactions | Choose reactions when lightweight feedback can safely remain attached to an existing item and does not require a written reply. | Each reaction attaches to one named source item and does not create a separate conversation by itself. | Microsoft documents Teams emoji reactions as workflow triggers with emoji, frequency, eligibility, and channel scope. |
