Hello all!
I am investigating some nuances with MCG, coming from the MCE world I am interested in where capabilities are similar and where they are not. For example, in MCE we can construct Salesforce Data Entry triggers for our Journeys which is a record triggered event to launch someone into a Journey immediatly (or within minutes) when say a campaign member record is created or an indicator is checked on a particular record.
Is this type of near real time triggering for MCG orchestrations possible at this stage of the product? I have been playing around with it and it does not appear so. It seems that the minimum time frame for flow recurring schedule is daily which would be quite a change for businesses looking to transition whose marketing strategies are structured to leverage the Salesforce Data Entry features of MCE.
I do see the option to trigger from an event - and I am looking for insight or additional information on this, although I am not convinced on this method being an appropriate replacement for the Salesforce Data Entry trigger.

There is indication that custom event triggers can be created by using a field in a real-time data graph - does anyone have reference material on this I can look at?

Hi Allie,
You can can create a Custom Event out of any Engagement DMO triggering an Automation Event Triggered Flow. This is referred to as Engagement Signals
.
Hope this helps 😎
