# Salesforce - New platform event trigger (real-time)
This trigger monitors Salesforce in real-time for new platform events. The trigger fetches platform events created in the last 24 hours when the recipe first starts.
PLATFORM EVENTS ARE TEMPORARY
Platform events are temporary. Any events not picked up within 24 hours are not processed. For example, events are not picked up if the recipe is stopped for over 24 hours.
