Trigger Node — Hector Trigger

Listens for real-time Hector events and starts a workflow when they occur.

Events:

  • task.created / task.updated / task.deleted
  • stop.created / stop.updated / stop.deleted
  • occurrence.status_changed

When the workflow activates, the node automatically registers a webhook in your Hector account. When deactivated, it removes it. Incoming payloads are verified using HMAC-SHA256.
