Triggers

Triggers run your jobs automatically when specific events occur in your connected apps. Instead of running on a schedule, triggers react to what's happening in real-time—like a smart assistant that's always watching for the right moment to act.

When to Use Triggers:

  • New Email Arrives - Process incoming emails, extract information, or route messages automatically
  • Form Submissions - Instantly handle responses from Google Forms, contact forms, or surveys
  • CRM Updates - React to new leads, deal changes, or customer updates in your CRM
  • File Uploads - Process documents when they're uploaded to cloud storage like Google Drive or OneDrive
  • Calendar Events - Trigger workflows when meetings are scheduled or reminders fire
  • Payment Notifications - Handle payment confirmations, subscriptions, or transaction updates

Triggers are ideal when you need to respond immediately to events as they happen, rather than waiting for a scheduled time. They turn your automation into a real-time, reactive system that works the moment something important occurs.
