# Enqueue Single Item

Adds an item to a Gradient Works Queue. The item may be of any type (e.g. Account, Lead, etc). This \*\*does not\*\* assign the item immediately, instead it is put in a pending state in the Queue.

If you specify a capacity using `capacityValue` or `capacityValueField`, that value will be used in capacity calculations when assigning the item to a user. For example, if you specify a `capacityValue` of 5, users must have an `availableCapacity` greater than or equal to 5 to be eligible for assignment.

Why use this instead of [Assign Single Item](/kb/automation-builder-kit-abk/actions/assignment/assignsingleitemaction.md)? In some cases it can be more efficient to add many items to the queue through various steps in a Flow and then perform the assignments all at once. You can explicitly trigger assignment for a particular queue by including [Assign Pending Items for Single Queue](/kb/automation-builder-kit-abk/actions/advanced/assignpendingsinglequeueaction.md) or [Assign Pending Items for Multiple Queues](/kb/automation-builder-kit-abk/actions/advanced/assignpendingmultiqueueaction.md) in your Flow. If you don't explicitly trigger assignment in your Flow, Gradient Works will assign the pending items at some point in the near future.
