When a row id added or modified or deleted - Where exactly is the trigger attached?

When I create a new flow in power automate with the trigger point or the starting point of the flow as "when a row is added or modified or deleted", on a table in dataverse, where exactly is the trigger added? Is this step introducing a new trigger on the table or is it something handled on the dataverse layer?

Can someone point me to the technical document explaining these aspects?

    Hi @midhun_heart ,  When you create a flow and added a trigger like "When a row is added, modified, or deleted" for a specified table in Dataverse, the trigger is managed on the Dataverse layer. The actual trigger logic is handled within the Dataverse infrastructure itself.

     

    Behind the scenes, there is a webhook that notify receivers about events by making requests to receiver endpoints (which is power automate service in this case) with some information (that you saw in dynamic content) about the events. Dataverse keeps track of changes in the data and notifies Power Automate (using webhooks) when the specified conditions (add, modify, delete) are met. Notification is a callback to the Power Automate service, which then executes the ]flow.

     

    For more information on Dataverse Webhooks, please read: Use Webhooks to create external handlers for server events - Power Apps | Microsoft Learn

     

    I hope this will help you.
