and team, first of all just wanted to say hi to everyone, bummed I missed the BR event! Second, how/where is the best way to report issues? We are running into a problem getting “Calendly” at the Org admin level to show us a list of events, just stuck in “Waiting for Events”
Btw, I’m curious if you have ideas on how we can improve this flow for other folks — obviously getting a test event from your trigger so you can build out your workflow is incredibly helpful. We’ve added static sample events to many triggers, but not all, which help show you the event shape with fake data.
But nothing is more helpful than a real event that you generate in the app. It seems like you thought something was functionally broken here, right? What was your expectation?
the easiest thing would be to make it more clear that it has to be triggered by the user (outside of pipedream) in order to be detected. “Waiting for events” is helpful but also a bit hard to know what it means in the context of setting up the flow. We expected a button to be enabled to allow us to “generate” it. It’s obvious after the fact but was lightly confusing when I was showing my co-worker how to set it up. Mainly because other things like Jira already had events generated. (didn’t realize the timing was just right that something had happened in Jira to create this)
Yea, we’ve also built some triggers to go fetch N recent events when you deploy the trigger, but either we aren’t doing that in this one or maybe there aren’t historical events to fetch
I wasn’t sure, it just seemed like it wasn’t working correctly because the other workflows I had built had triggers already do it so the list had something to choose from
