How it behaves
- Reads the comment from Attio after the event. If that read fails, no run starts.
- Starts at most one run per comment each time the workflow is turned on.
Errors
Triggers have no error branch. When something goes wrong inside a trigger, no run starts. See Troubleshooting.
Example
Forward comments on key accounts to the account owner.
