On DemandAn editor clicks a button on the content's edit page in the connected CMS.Display Name—the button's label, defaulting to the automation's name. Description—the line shown beside the button, defaulting to the automation's description. Cooldown—how long the button stays disabled for the same content after a run. Leave it blank or zero for no throttle.

On Demand, in more detail

On Demand is the one event nothing in the CMS raises on its own: saving the trigger registers a button on the edit page of the content it matches, and an editor decides when to press it. Sites and Types decide where that button appears, exactly as they decide what the other events match—so an On Demand trigger with no types set puts the button on every content type.

Output

The event's payload—the affected content and the event's own metadata—plus a link to the content's edit page in the connected CMS. The exact shape depends on the event, and later steps see that shape as soon as you pick one.
