Hi, I use a trigger which is when a new row is added in google spreadsheet. However when I add a new row and start the scenario, it does not trigger and find a new row. (*See images)

You have set the schedule to only run when you click “Run Once”. And you also have to switch on your scenario.
Turn your scenario off and then on again.
This is because the module is a POLLING trigger, and not an INSTANT (Webhook) trigger.
There are two main types of triggers, Polling (scheduled), and Instant (webhooks). Polling triggers can only run on a schedule. Instant triggers can be run as soon as data is received by the webhook.
Polling means Make checks external service for changes (pull changes to Make).
Webhook (instant) triggers means external service calls Make when there are new changes (push changes to Make).
The module you are using does not push changes — it’s basically a API request that Make has to occasionally “call” to fetch the latest changes/items.
To find out more on the different types of Trigger modules, see refer to Types of Modules and Webhooks sections of the Make Help Centre.
See if your app has an “Instant” or “Webhook” trigger in Make. If not, check if the third-party service has a feature that can send out a webhook when content is created/updated - and then you can point it to a “Custom Webhook” trigger in your scenario.
Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.
