Summary

Tines recently hosted its first 'You did What with Tines' contest, encouraging customers to showcase creative automation solutions using the Tines platform, whether for practical workflows or whimsical projects. Participants were invited to submit automation Stories, with the winning entry by Niall from Informatica titled 'Get me outta here!' This Story creatively utilized the Ryanair API to identify affordable flights while considering COVID-19 restrictions, such as avoiding high-risk destinations and quarantine requirements. The contest aimed to inspire the community to explore automation possibilities, with plans for future editions to continue fostering innovation and sharing successful use cases.
