Set the Pipedrive trigger as “Deal stage changed”

Every playbook starts with a trigger. The trigger detects changes in your connected apps and runs your playbook in response.

Click "Add trigger" in your playbook. Select the "Deal stage changed" trigger from the Pipedrive options from there. It will enable your playbook to identify deals' stages that have been changed and trigger necessary actions automatically.

If you still need to connect your Pipedrive account to Relay.app, a prompt will guide you through the connection process.

If your Gmail account isn't already connected to Relay.app, you will be prompted to complete that connection. Make sure to allow the necessary permissions for Relay.app to sync with your Gmail account.
