Signal Ready

Start a workflow when a signal's value is updated. Signals are the data points AskElephant extracts from meetings, and this trigger lets you act the moment one of them changes. It appears as Signal Ready in the workflow builder.

What It Does

Fires when a signal that matches your filters is updated. When you set more than one filter, the signal must match all of them for the workflow to run.

When It Fires

Whenever a matching signal value is updated. At least one signal filter is required.

Configuration

Configure the node with these settings:

Field	What it controls
Signal filters	One or more filters, all of which must match. Each filter has: Signal name.: The signal to watch. Operator.: How to compare the value: `EQUALS`, `CONTAINS`, `GREATER_THAN`, `LESS_THAN`, `IN`, or `BETWEEN`. Leave the operator off to fire whenever the signal is present, regardless of value. Value.: The value or values to compare against. Range start and end.: Used with the `BETWEEN` operator.

Outputs

The node passes these values downstream. Check the Outputs tab on the configured node to confirm exact paths.

Variable	Type	Description	Example
`signalId`	`string`	The ID of the signal	`{{nodeId.signalId}}`
`name`	`string`	The name of the signal	`{{nodeId.name}}`
`description`	`string`	The description of the signal	`{{nodeId.description}}`
`dataType`	`string`	The type of signal	`{{nodeId.dataType}}`
`value`	`string`	The signal data content	`{{nodeId.value}}`

Example Workflow

Watch a Churn risk signal. When its value updates to high, notify the account owner so they can follow up.
