    • Pre-provisioning operations streamline catalog item deployment by automating tasks like notifications, workflows, or scripts before provisioning. Configuring these operations eliminates manual steps, saving time and effort as the system automatically executes specified actions when a provisioning request is submitted, such as notifying users about the impending item provisioning process.
