Event Trigger Task Automation

ddrovencJ

Can I create event-triggered tasks?  I know there are automation capabilities via Schedules. For example, I want to automate my flow to run every time a new file is uploaded to our database (Snowflake or Databricks).

You can create a cloud function to detect whenever a new file comes into your data storage or database. Refer to this Create HTTP Task article for help.
