Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Mailhook, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Mailhook or Basecamp will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Mailhook or Basecamp, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Mailhook, Basecamp, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Mailhook and Basecamp integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Mailhook and Basecamp (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
