Start a flow from an app event

A new message, contact or row in another app starts the flow.

App events are triggers for the apps that offer them: a new message on Slack, Telegram or WhatsApp, a new calendar event, a new record in a CRM. Some check the app every few minutes, others are called by the app the moment it happens. Each event block has its own address, and each call is checked the way that app allows.

Deploying a flow sets the event up in the app; pausing removes it.
