Automation Question

Bhh

Hi. Is it possible to use the Trigger "When rows are added or changed" with a Run workflow other than "When Triggered"? I would like to send one notification daily (or weekly) to include all the updates. Thank you!

I see now. Strange limitation.

If you are using automated workflows to send notifications and want to use {{Placeholders}}, your workflow can only send notifications When triggered. Hourly, Daily or Weekly options are not available in this scenario.

Hi @Bhh

if you select the "When triggered" drop-down you'll find that you can setup automations to run based on date and time intervals. I have several workflows that run every night at a specific time, regardless of whether any rows have been added or changed. I hope this helps!

Thank you for responding. I should have been clearer in my question. When I try to select one of the other options, I get this message and don't know why.
