In a flow
“When someone's nickname changes, the steps wired after it run.”
Reset nicknames that try to look like staff.
What it does
A member's server nickname is set, changed or cleared, by them or by staff. It starts a flow, and gives the steps after it values about what happened. It gives 4 values later steps can use. Find it under Starts when in the palette.
When to use it
Use it to start a flow when someone's nickname changes.
When not to
If the flow should start from a click or a command instead, pick that trigger: a flow has exactly one.
