📋 Overview of each step in the Recipe for sending Google Chat channel messages
1. Trigger: New candidate Applied from External form in Recruit CRM
This is the starting point of the automation. It gets triggered whenever a candidate applies from an external form in Recruit CRM.
2. Actions:
Monitor step:
It helps in monitoring the following actions for errors. This makes the automation more reliable.
Send Message:
This will send the message in your selected space.
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.
That's it! I hope this helps.
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions, or run into any errors! Happy recruiting :)
