# Table entry created

`POST tableEntryCreated` (webhook)

Triggered when an entry is added to an employee's table (including
out-of-the-box and custom tables).

Does not apply to Training, Equity, Positions, or Jobs tables.

To identify the row/entry when fetching using the API, use the property that appears in the payload for that table type:

- **id** — Included only for non-historical tables (e.g. custom tables, bank accounts). Identifies the entry row. Omitted for historical tables.
- **effectiveDate** — Included only for historical tables. Identifies the entry row for that table type. Omitted for non-historical tables.

Each event includes exactly one of `effectiveDate` or `id` inside `data`, depending on whether the table is historical.

To learn more about table types, see <a href="https://apidocs.hibob.com/docs/explore-employee-data#employee-data-modeling" target="_blank">Employee data modeling</a>.

When a table entry is created or updated, it may also update employee-level fields (e.g. derived or linked). In that case you will also receive an <a href="https://apidocs.hibob.com/reference/post_webhook_employee-updated" target="_blank">employee.updated</a> event with the list of changed field IDs in <code>fieldUpdates</code>. Bank accounts and custom tables do not trigger this additional employee.updated event.

In the right panel, open **Examples** and select **Payload Example** to see a real payload.
