Triggers
Define how your integration initiates an automation workflow.
Choose Your Trigger Type
Trigger Type | Best For |
APIs supporting real-time webhooks. | |
APIs requiring polling (no webhooks). | |
Users needing to copy-paste URLs. |
Implementation Lifecycle
Define Input Fields: Create settings for users to configure the trigger (e.g.,
Board ID,Project Name).Configure API: Setup the Webhook listener or the polling endpoint.
Map Sample Data: Provide a JSON sample to allow users to map fields in the workflow.
Test: Validate data flow and field mapping.
Technical Constraints
Challenge | Solution |
Duplicate Events | Use unique |
Rate Limits | Implement exponential backoff for polling. |
Validation | Verify incoming webhook payloads via signatures. |
💡 Pro-Tip: Always provide a Sample Data JSON payload. Without it, users cannot map fields to downstream actions, effectively breaking the integration.
