Airtable Watch Record trigger dont work

Hello Everyone!
Hope you are all doing well.

The Problem:
My Airtable module is not working properly. I am somehow making a logical mistake or I have forgotten something.
I want that if I enter something in Airtable (cell: “MainKeyword”) everything should be automatically entered in the other cells.
But when I enter something, the module does not start although I have set created times as a field. I have set different schedules but none of them work. Only when I press “manual run”, the run starts and everything is added.

The goal is simple: when I enter a keyword, everything should be entered automatically. The schedule time doesnt matter right now.
I hope you can help me. When I get the hang of it, all my automation will finally run correctly

Best regards




Hello,

First of all, remember to configure your “Status” field in Airtable so that it only changes when the “MainKeyword” is updated (change option to “Specific fields”).

Second, the trigger you’re using is a polling trigger, meaning it runs according to your schedule.

For example, if it’s set to run every 15 minutes starting at 8:00, and you make changes at 8:02, the scenario will run at the next interval, which is 8:15, and so on.

Scenario must be of course turned on.

If you want to trigger scenario instantly- you must play with Airtable’s automations and change trigger to “Webhook”.

Have a nice day!
