Built-in triggers

Every automation starts with exactly one trigger. These four are available in every deployment, listed in the picker under General Triggers. For how triggers work—what starts a run, what the trigger contributes to the run's data, and how to narrow what it responds to—see Triggers.

NodeWhat it does
ScheduleStarts a run each time a recurring schedule comes due, and can also be run by hand.
WebhookStarts a run when an external system posts to a URL generated for the trigger.
On DemandStarts a run when you run it yourself, or when another automation calls it.
Automation CompletedStarts a run when a chosen automation finishes with an outcome you selected.
