Create your playbook and set the Paddle trigger as "Transaction completed"

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 "Transaction completed" under Paddle. Then, select the necessary details. This will allow your playbook to automatically detect each completed transaction in Paddle and initiate necessary actions.

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