Create your playbook and set the Airtable trigger as "New record added"

After creating your playbook, you can proceed to add your trigger. The trigger detects changes in your connected apps and responds to your playbook.

To set up this playbook, click "Add trigger" and then select "New record added" under Airtable. Then, select the table. This will allow your playbook to automatically detect the newly added record in Airtable and initiate necessary actions.

If this is your first time using an Airtable integration in Relay.app, a prompt will guide you through the connection process.

Click the "Add step" button, then locate the "Get or add person" automation for Pipedrive and input the mandatory and relevant details.

If your Pipedrive account isn't already connected to Relay.app, you will be prompted to complete that connection. Make sure to allow the necessary permissions for Relay.app to sync with your Pipedrive account.
