How do I trigger when someone submits a Typeform response?
Short answer: Drop the "Typeform → New Response" trigger on your workflow canvas, add filters if you want them, and publish. It fires within seconds of the event in Typeform, not on a polling schedule.

FAQ
Questions about New Response.
How does the New Response trigger work in Typeform?
Fires when a new response is submitted to a Typeform form. The standard hook for piping form fills into your CRM, ESP, or notification channel.
Is the New Response trigger real-time?
Yes. New Response uses webhooks or push subscriptions, not polling. Your workflow fires within seconds of the event happening in Typeform.
What data does New Response return?
The full event payload from Typeform. 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 New Response 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 Typeform admin permissions to use New Response?
For most Typeform accounts a standard user can authorize the trigger. Some Typeform plans require an admin to enable third-party webhooks. Check Typeform's docs if the trigger fails to register.
