About Creating Automations
The Automations pane allows you to create, edit, and enable automated watchers
and subscriptions.
 Watchers are Final Cut Server items that you configure to monitor a device. When an
event occurs that it is watching for, such as when a media file is added to the device
or removed from it, the watcher executes a response such as copying the media file
to another location or sending an email.
 Subscriptions are Final Cut Server items that you configure to monitor metadata
changes. When an event occurs that the subscription is watching for, such as when
an asset has its current status changed to Ready for Review, the subscription
executes a response such as sending an email to the reviewer.
