I’ve set up the following:

- When certain data changes, a ‘New Database Trigger event’ activates within ‘Backend Workflows’.
- This activates sending an email, filled with database information, via Postmark.

But altough working in Live environment, this ‘New Database Trigger event’ only activates based on Dev data being changed, and using only Dev data to fill the email. I cannot find any option where I can toggle between live/dev data.

What am I doing wrong?

No solution yet. Made a work around, by triggering the event after 5 min. iso after change of database field. The change of database was expected from an outside source, and after 5 min. I was sure the outside source filled my database, with the data I needed for sending the email via Postmark. Hope this makes sense.
