Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
'Record Created' trigger with a condition
The 'Record Created' trigger fires when a new record is created in a specified table, which matches the requirement. Option B is incorrect because an 'Event' trigger requires a custom event to be published, not a record creation. Option C is incorrect because 'Application Record Created' is not a standard trigger in Flow Designer; the correct trigger for record creation is 'Record Created'. Option D is incorrect because 'Scheduled' triggers are time-based and are not triggered by record creation.
