Because you are likely creating the event using gs.eventQueue or similar, this generally runs with setWorkflow(false).


You can set a system property in your instance I believe to get around this.

 

Name: trigger_engine.ignore.set_workflow

Type: True

Value: True

Having this setup allows for "Record" triggers for "Create", "Create/Update", "Updated" for events to actually trigger.

 

However, I would be very cautious of doing this and consider the flow-on effects of enabling sysevents to trigger flows. This may become undesirable.
