Example
Example For example, an incident manager wants to notify fulfillers when an incident comment is added to a high-priority incident. The manager sets Reference Object to Incident, selects Usage Type as Related Object, and chooses the comment object in Related Object. The manager then sets the trigger type to Associate and configures Slack and in-app channels. When a new comment is added, the configured recipients receive the notification.
