Initial action trigger fails. I want to receive a notification by email when a file has been added to a folder by another user.
 
Action 'When_a_file_is_created_in_a_folder_(deprecated)' failed

    It likely failed because the trigger you are using has been deprecated. You should use this trigger instead:
     
    Just configure it to the folder where you want trigger.
