Trigger Node

The Trigger Node is the entry point for every workflow. It defines how your workflow is started and what initial data is available.

Overview#

Every workflow begins with a Trigger Node. This node:

  • Receives input data when the workflow starts
  • Makes input variables available to downstream nodes
  • Can be configured for different trigger types

Trigger Types#

Manual Trigger#

Run the workflow manually from the dashboard or API.

API Trigger#

Trigger the workflow via HTTP request to receive external data.

Scheduled Trigger#

Run the workflow on a schedule (coming soon).

Configuration#

The Trigger Node allows you to define:

  • Input Schema - Expected input variables and their types
  • Default Values - Fallback values when inputs aren’t provided

Accessing Trigger Data#

Downstream nodes can access trigger data using variable references:

  • {{trigger.input_name}} - Access a specific input variable
  • {{trigger}} - Access all trigger data as an object
