For On-Demand Triggered Actions

The Permalink Click trigger allows you to launch an automation only when a user clicks on a specific link — whether it's from an email, a web page, or any other interface where the link is available.

➡️ How it works

This trigger is designed to meet a simple need: launching an action only when a user deliberately clicks. It doesn’t depend on any changes in the database and is triggered only by an explicit action.

Configuration: select the permalink column in your table

➡️ Common Use Cases

• Action buttons in emails
  Example: “I want a Validate button in an email” → Create a clickable permalink that activates the automation on click.
• Confirmation requests
  The user must click a link to approve or reject an action (e.g. document approval, quote validation).
• Manual tracking
  A link used to mark a task as completed, notify someone, or manually update a status.

➡️ Benefits

• Full control: The automation only runs when someone clicks.
• Simple to use: Can be integrated into emails or any other communication channel.
• Secure: Ideal for requiring deliberate user actions before executing sensitive processes.

➡️ Best Practices

• Combine this trigger with filters (conditions) to make sure only relevant records are affected.
• Use clear, action-oriented labels for your links (e.g. “Approve”, “Reject”, “Confirm”).
• Use this trigger in workflows where the end user must give explicit confirmation or validation.
