New Item Polling
Poll an endpoint on a schedule and fire when a new record appears. The workhorse trigger.
The most common trigger in APIANT. Polls a source endpoint on a schedule and fires once per record that didn't exist on the previous check.
When to use
- The source has no webhooks.
- You need records as they're created (not modified).
- Near-realtime is good enough (polling interval is usually 5–15 min).
Alternatives
- New or Updated Polling — also fires on modifications to existing records.
- Webhook triggers — lower latency if the source supports them.
