The Mergebase trigger starts a workflow when a record in a MergePoint table is created, changed, or meets a set of conditions. Use it to automate responses to data changes — processing new rows, reacting to status updates, or running logic when specific criteria are met.
In the Start node inspector, select Mergebase. Then choose the table to watch and the event type.
| Event | When it fires |
|---|---|
| New record | Each time a new row is added to the table |
| Record changed | Each time an existing row is updated |
| Record meets conditions | When a row's data satisfies a set of conditions you define |
| Batch | Processes all records matching the conditions on a schedule, rather than one at a time |
When Batch is selected, the trigger collects matching records and processes them together rather than firing once per event. Configure the batch schedule:
| Schedule | When it runs |
|---|---|
| Manual | Only when started on demand |
| Hourly | Once every hour |
| Daily | Once per day at a specified time |
| Weekly | On specific days of the week at a specified time |
When the trigger fires, the workflow receives the full record as its input — every column value is available as a named step output for use in downstream steps.
The trigger only processes live table events after the workflow is published. Changes that happen while the workflow is in draft are not captured.
