Trigger workflows when new records are created in NocoDB.

This NocoDB trigger starts a workflow when a new record is added to a selected table in the current base. The record can come from a form, the API, or direct entry in the table. The workflow context gets the data of the new record.

| To                                         | Use the trigger node                                                                          |
| ------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Add a condition                            | [when record matches condition](/docs/workflows/nodes/trigger-nodes/record-matches-condition) |
| Monitor only records from a specific form  | [when form submitted](/docs/workflows/nodes/trigger-nodes/record-created-form)                |
| Monitor records that enter a specific view | [when record enters a view](/docs/workflows/nodes/trigger-nodes/record-enters-view)           |

### How it works

* The trigger fires immediately after a record is created (from a form, the API, or direct entry).
* When many records are added together (a batch), the trigger fires one time for each record.

### Use cases

* Send notifications for new records
* Create related records automatically
* Set default values

## Availability

* Available on NocoDB Cloud (all plans) and licensed on-premise deployments.
