# Automation recipe OG image template

A "when this happens, do that" workflow: app nodes on a thick pipe with arrows, the trigger marked with a bolt.

For automation platforms, integration marketplaces and template galleries publishing a card per recipe. Up to five steps; a longer recipe shows four and a "+N more steps" node. A step without an icon gets a monogram in a colour picked from its app name, and long actions end after two lines. Wide frames lay the pipe across the card; square and vertical frames run it down the left with each step on its own card.

## Fields

Every field is optional. Long text shrinks to fit instead of overflowing; an image field takes a public URL that we fetch on our side.

| Field | Type | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| `title` | text | What the recipe does, at the top. (default: Automation recipe) | Celebrate every big sale with the whole team |
| `steps` | text | Steps separated by `;`, each as app\|action, the trigger first, e.g. Paybright\|New payment over $1,000;Chatterbox\|Post it to #wins. | Paybright\|New payment over $1,000;Northwind\|Render a thank-you card;Ledgerly\|Add a row to the sales sheet;Chatterbox\|Post it to #wins |
| `time_saved` | text | Optional badge next to the title, e.g. Saves 3 h a week. | Saves 3 h a week |
| `site` | text | Website or recipe address, at the bottom. | northwind.dev/recipes |

## Make it yours

accent and theme change per request. For anything more, copy the template into your account: you get an ordinary HTML template with the same fields that you can edit in the dashboard or through the API. If the slug is free on your account, the copy takes it — your integrations switch to your version without changing a line.

```bash
curl -X POST "https://shareglint.com/v1/templates/library/automation-recipe/copy" -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_YOUR_KEY"
```
