How do I trigger when a Pipedrive activity is created?

Short answer: In TinyCommand, add the Pipedrive Activity Added trigger to a workflow and publish. It listens through a Pipedrive webhook and fires your workflow within seconds of the event, with no polling and no code. Add a filter if you only want some events to continue past the trigger.

FAQ

Questions about Activity Added.

How does the Activity Added trigger work in Pipedrive?
Fires when a new activity (call, meeting, task, email) is created in Pipedrive. Use to mirror activities into a calendar or to enforce activity-based SLAs.
Is the Activity Added trigger real-time?
Yes. Activity Added uses webhooks or push subscriptions, not polling. Your workflow fires within seconds of the event happening in Pipedrive.
What data does Activity Added return?
The full event payload from Pipedrive. The output shape table on this page lists every field, its type, and an example value so you can map fields into downstream nodes.
Can I filter Activity Added so only some events start a workflow?
Yes. Add a Filter node right after the trigger and match on any field, whether that's subject, sender, status, or anything else in the payload. Workflows only continue when the filter passes.
Do I need Pipedrive admin permissions to use Activity Added?
For most Pipedrive accounts a standard user can authorize the trigger. Some Pipedrive plans require an admin to enable third-party webhooks. Check Pipedrive's docs if the trigger fails to register.
