How can I trigger a task when a row is added or updated to a postgres table?

I currently use zapier workflows to trigger when a postgres table is updated or created is there a way that I can do this in Pabbly too? I dont see anything come up when I search for postgres when I start a workflow. If not, can this be created? I would likely 3-10x my workflow usage on pabbly if I had this feature.

Thank you! Is there any other way to do this with the current capabilities?

If the application you are attempting to connect with supports webhooks, you can try using 'Webhook by Pabbly' to set it up as the trigger step.

I think we're on separate wavelengths. I am trying to figure out how to trigger a workflow in pabbly based on a row being created or updated in Postgres.

We do understand your use case. Currently, it's not possible to set Postgres as the trigger step that executes when a new row is created or updated, as we don't have a trigger application for Postgres.

Hello @SnackGuy ,
You can make custom app by following this video tutorial (

). All you need is API doc of Postgres and follow this tutorial.
If you are still not able to solve this on your own feel free to DM me and we can do a free zoom call. FYI I'm not from Pabbly Connect team, just a freelancer who helps other Pabbly users.
