The Action Workflows feature in PublishPress Future allows you to use metadata in your workflows. This means you can use metadata to take actions in your workflow. We also have a complete guide to using Post Meta in workflows.
- Post > Metadata, looks in the
_postmetatable. - Post > Author > Metadata, looks in the
_usermetatable. - Activating User > Metadata, looks in the
_usermetatable. - Workflow > Metadata, looks in the
_postmetatable.
In the screenshot below, we're using the “Metadata” field as a date source. Because this is connected to a “Post” variable, this will look in the _postmeta table.

In the screenshot below, we're using the “Metadata” field to insert a value into a custom field. Because this is connected to a “User” variable, this will look in the _usermeta table.
