Run a flow when something changes
A new place nearby, a rating that drops, a place that closes, a road closed near a site.
When something changes is a trigger: instead of running on a timer, the flow runs when a check finds a change around your places. Watch for a new place of a kind opening nearby, a rating dropping below a line, a place closing, or a road closed (or roadworks) near a site.
- Around: up to 5 places, such as your stores or a depot, and Within a distance.
- Kind of place: up to 4, from xMap’s places database.
- Check every 15 minutes, hour, 6 hours or day.
Each check is a small search, and the block says what one check and a month of checks cost. The first check only looks; from the next one, the flow runs only when something changed, with the changed places as its items (each with change in words). The flow’s own blocks are paid only when it runs. Checks happen while the flow is live.
