loberza ~ It depends on the automation (from HERE) and Apple may have based their decision on security considerations:

The following automations can be run automatically:
Airplane Mode
Alarm
CarPlay
Do Not Disturb
Low Power Mode
NFC
Open App
Watch Workout
Note: You also may need to set individual actions to run automatically.

The following automations cannot be run automatically:
Arrive
Before I Leave
Bluetooth
Leave
Time of Day
Wi-Fi

Here's a screenshot (from iOS 13.3) of an "Open App" automation showing the "Ask Before Running" setting turned off:
