# Input fields

# Table

Select the table/view to process rows from. This can be done either by selecting a table from the pick list, or toggling the input field to text mode and typing the full table name.

# Unique key

Values from this selected column are used to deduplicate rows in the selected table, making sure that the same row is not processed twice in the same recipe.

As such, the values in the selected column should not be repeated in your table. Typically, this column is the primary key of the table (for example, ID). It should be incremental and sortable. This column can also be indexed for better performance.

# Batch size

Batch size of rows to return in each job. This can be any number between 1 and the maximum batch size. Maximum batch size is 100 and default is 100.

In any given poll, if there are less rows than the configured batch size, this trigger will deliver all rows as a smaller batch.

# WHERE condition

This condition is used to filter rows based on one or more column values.

STATUS = 'closed' and PRIORITY > 3

Leave blank to process all rows from the selected table.

Complex WHERE conditions with subqueries can also be used. Refer to the WHERE condition guide for more information.
