    • QueryRequired

      Query results must have a unique id field so we can deduplicate records properly! Otherwise we will make a best guess. You must also include desired ordering and limiting in the query.

      Note: This query must run in less than 30 seconds and it is recommended that you return no more than 5,000 rows

    • Table/ViewRequired

    • Primary KeyRequired

      Usually something auto-incremented like id. Must be unique. Column names that contain a space must be enclosed within brackets [ ].

    • Order ByRequired

      Usually something like date_updated or last_modified. This should ideally be a datetime column that is set to the current datetime whenever a row is updated.

    • Trigger Column

      Trigger on changes to cells in this column only. Leave blank if you want to trigger on changes to cells in all columns.

    • Table/ViewRequired

      We expect at least one unique (and usually autoincrement) primary key column so we can deduplicate records properly! Otherwise we will make a best guess on a random column to use to deduplicate.

    • Order By

      Highly recommended! Usually you want the results to be most recent first so we can skim off only new results, so choose something like date_created or your autoincrement id. Column names that contain a space must be enclosed within brackets [ ].

    • Dedupe Key

      We default to what the primary key is on the table as the unique key to deduplicate on. If you prefer another field, select it here.
