Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.

- 4Pick New User Created as the trigger and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one real user.
Questions about this workflow
Can the token be used by a later step?
Yes, design the prompt so the authorized downstream call uses the retrieved token securely.
Is the token stored in the report?
