Which form should we watch for the new PDF?

PlatoForms transforms PDFs into easy-to-fill web forms, letting clients submit directly from their browser.

Instantly build dynamic interfaces that connect to Zaps and a data source (like Tables). Interfaces gives you a drag-and-drop way to build visual workflows for any business process, without writing code.

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.

**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 `[ ]`.

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.

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**

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

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 on changes to cells in this column only. To trigger on changes to any column, leave blank and use a date field like `date_updated` or `last_modified` as Order By.

To trigger on updates to any column, leave the field "Trigger Column" blank and use a datetime field like `date_updated` or `last_modified` as Order By. This field should be automatically updated by your database when the row is updated, and will be used to identify the updates and trigger the Zap.

You should include desired ordering and limiting (usually to 1 record) in the query.

**This query must run in less than ~30 seconds.**
