Update Trigger Record

Patch the record that started the automation. Use it to set a status, stamp a timestamp, or transform values on the triggering record. Add it from Add Condition, Record or ActionActionUpdate Trigger Record.

note

Update Trigger Record is available only on a Record event trigger in the Before phase. It is disabled for the After phase and for Schedule and On demand triggers.

Configuration

The target collection and the Update operation are fixed — they come from the trigger. You only configure the Fields mapping: map a value to each field you want to change on the trigger record. The value control matches the field type, and the + picker inserts a {{alias.field}} token.

Example

Trigger: Record event — Created · Before · Orders (alias: order)

Action: Update Trigger Record
status = "received"
receivedAt = {{now}}
