This functionality is particularly useful for time-sensitive automation - automatically adjusting a tester’s access based on their survey responses, adding Project or Community Scores for completing or updating a Profile or optional Survey, and much more. Since this feature leverages User Macros, the sky's the limit - adjust teams, add or remove scores, send email notifications, provide incentives, or even trigger an API integration via Webhook!
