For my project, I need a button plus 2 actions. Unfortunately, each action requires more and more buttons. I didn’t choose the button block but the regular button. However, the icon of the regular button now looks the same as the button block.

As an example, I’ve added both buttons. As I said, I need one button with multiple actions.

Your button should call a workflow if you need it to run more than one action.

Either select Workflows… as the action (Should be the first option after “none”. Or create a workflow in the workflows tab first, and select it for you button action.

Thanks! Should I just use the untitled workflow or create a new one? I’ve found it now.  
this is completely new to me. How should the workflow be set up if I want the button to first trigger AI Generate and then Increment Number? And do I actually need to create a separate workflow for each of the 6 tool buttons?

Add a ‘Wait’ action or a ‘Wait for Condition’ action.
