# Manual Activation

Learn how to trigger a workflow manually.

If you want to only trigger a workflow on demand, you can create the workflow and set it to **Automation Disabled** at the top of the screen, or create a [Scheduled workflow ](/automations/triggers/scheduled-triggers.md)and set the schedule to **Never.** 

With either of these methods, simply choose the **Run Now** option in the editor to run the workflow on demand.
