Close CRM Trigger (Webhook Node)

Starts a workflow automatically when a selected event occurs in Close CRM. The node automatically registers and deregisters the webhook subscription in Close CRM when the workflow is activated or deactivated.

Available Trigger Events

| Category | Events | |---|---| | Lead | Created, Updated, Deleted, Merged | | Contact | Created, Updated, Deleted | | Opportunity | Created, Updated, Deleted | | Task | Created, Updated, Deleted, Completed | | Note | Created, Updated, Deleted | | Call | Created, Updated, Deleted, Completed | | Email | Created, Updated, Deleted, Sent | | SMS | Created, Updated, Deleted, Sent | | Meeting | Created, Updated, Deleted, Scheduled, Started, Completed, Canceled | | Custom Activity | Created, Updated, Deleted | | On Custom Activity Published ⭐ | Fires when a custom activity is published (created as published or status changed to published) | | Lead Status Changed | — | | Opportunity Status Changed | — | | Form Submission Created | — | | Email Unsubscribed / Resubscribed | — |

On Custom Activity Published ⭐

This trigger uses Close CRM's server-side extra_filter to fire only when a custom activity is genuinely published — either created directly as published, or when a draft activity's status changes to published. It requires you to select a specific Custom Activity Type and registers two webhook events in a single subscription:

• updated with filter: status == published AND changed_fields contains "status"
• created with filter: status == published

This matches the behaviour of Zapier's "Published Custom Activity" trigger and is the most precise way to detect publishing events in Close CRM.

Example Use Cases

• Lead Created → Enrich & Notify — When a new lead is created in Close, enrich it with data from Clearbit and send a Slack notification to the sales team
• Opportunity Won → Onboarding — When an opportunity status changes to "Won", automatically create an onboarding task, send a welcome email, and add the contact to a Mailchimp list
• Published Custom Activity → CRM Update — When a sales rep publishes a custom activity (e.g. a demo feedback form), automatically update the lead score and trigger a follow-up sequence
• Task Completed → Invoice — When a task is marked complete, create an invoice in your billing system
