Secret Santa (Amigo Invisible) Automation 🎁 This workflow fully automates a Secret Santa (Amic Invisible) event — perfect for friends, families, or office teams who want to make their gift exchange fun, fair, and completely private. It takes a simple list of participant names and emails, then automatically pairs everyone using a non-repeating random assignment system (derangement algorithm) — meaning no one is ever assigned to themselves and every participant both gives and receives a gift exactly once. Once the pairs are generated, the workflow sends each participant a beautifully formatted email revealing only their assigned recipient. After each email is sent, it is automatically deleted from the “Sent” folder to ensure the organizer cannot see or trace who got whom, keeping the surprise intact. At the end of the process, the workflow generates a numerical summary like “1 sent to 2, 2 sent to 3…” — allowing the organizer to verify that everything worked correctly without revealing the actual names or emails of the participants. This automation combines creativity, privacy, and transparency — making it perfect for anyone who wants to manage a Secret Santa game with ease, fairness, and a touch of automation magic.
