📋 Overview of each step in the Recipe


1. Trigger: New Contact Created in Recruit CRM

This is the starting point of the automation. It gets triggered whenever a new contact record is created in Recruit CRM.


2. Actions:

  • Monitor step:

    It helps in monitoring the following actions for errors. This makes the automation more reliable.

  • Action in app:

    Perform the next step of the recipe. In this case, it will create a record in the Notion app.

  • Error Handler:

    If something fails within the Monitor block, then this step is triggered. The Retry Logic ensures that if the errors match those specified (429, 500–504), it retries the monitored actions up to 3 times. If the error continues after 3 retries, or if the error doesn’t match the handled types, the automation stops.

Hope this helps! 😊
