4. Let us assume you need to notify your team members whenever a new record is created. In this case, you can select the trigger, 'When a record is created'. A trigger event is added.

5. You can define additional properties and add conditions to further customize your trigger and make it more specific.&#x20;

In the image below, we have added a trigger description and a condition for the trigger that specifies a particular category.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
You can add multiple conditions and combine them using AND/OR, for an event to initiate the action.
{% endhint %}
