Automations created by Desktop run on the owner's connected desktop; Automations created by Web run in OpenWork Cloud. If no desktop runner is connected when a desktop occurrence is due, that occurrence is recorded as missed. Creation makes an Automation active immediately and uses the owner's current OpenWork Connect integrations. Deactivation stops future runs but does not cancel a run already in progress. This is the Web and Cloud Chat creation surface. Placement is fixed to OpenWork Cloud and the Automation can wake a stopped Cloud container without a desktop. Create only when the person explicitly asks to create or schedule it; there is no draft step. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi.json post /v1/cloud-automations openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Den API description: >- OpenAPI spec for the Den control plane API. Authentication: - Use `Authorization: Bearer ` for user-authenticated routes that require a Den session. - Use `x-api-key: ` for API-key-authenticated routes that accept organization API keys. - Public routes like health and documentation do not require authentication.
