How SeaTable Trigger Works
Turning Database Events Into Automated Actions
Under the Hood of Real-Time Automation
SeaTable Trigger creates a continuous monitoring system that instantly detects changes in your SeaTable database:
- Event Detection: The trigger constantly monitors your specified tables for new records, updates, or deletions
- Data Extraction: When changes occur, relevant data is automatically extracted
- Workflow Initiation: The trigger immediately launches your custom n8n workflow
- Execution: Your workflow processes the data and performs configured actions
This event-driven architecture eliminates polling inefficiencies and creates true real-time automation capabilities, with your workflows executing precisely when needed—not on arbitrary schedules.
