Run workflow when record is added via api

[dodom2]

Question. We are doing an integration with our shopping cart. My question is that when a new account is created we want to send a welcome email via workflow. Having that said when an account is added via the api will it still trigger the workflow and if not how can we accomplish this?

Hello,
despite the way (API or UI) of creating a new record, the workflow should be triggered if the trigger type is set to 'After record created' or 'After record saved' https://github.com/espocrm/documenta...#trigger-types.

Thank you for that information Maximus!
