Hi there - It would seem this question has been asked several times but I haven’t seen any answer that resolve the problem.

We have an application [published here](https://ecosystem.hubspot.com/marketplace/apps/trestle-real-contact-2019920?). We are looking for a way to define custom workflow actions that would be available for our application users, similar to the “Send Slack notification” action, which is part of the Slack Hubspot app.

I see a number of these “Integrated Apps” are built by HubSpot but quite a few of them are not.  
How do we enable our app to be accessable via workflows?

Hi [@K\_Foster](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/828014)

You can add a [Custom Workflow Action](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/guides/api/automation/custom-workflow-actions) to your App and it will appear in the Workflows tool.

Which is a great idea because it makes your app even more discoverable!

Have fun

Mike
