How do I extract row information from a rowy trigger

Hey all, I'm new to Buildship and have been struggling all day with something that has to be trivial. I created a Rowy trigger (extension) that fires a buildship workflow (from a firebase change). All that workflow does is receive the trigger (the first node) then attempt to output a field to the console.

All I'm trying to do is extract a field from a row that was added or deleted. So in my firebase there is a record that has a field called 'contextId'. I delete it and the trigger fires and I can see a lot of data embedded in the logs. But what i would expect I could do (based on the documentation) is to export to the console this:

'Context: ' + (x)Row.contextId

or maybe

'Context: ' + (x)Before.contextId

(where obviously the 'Context' is just so it's clear in the logs). Anyone out there to tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Solution
Hi @Roke @bobjoneswins, All the information that is gettring triggered by the Rowy Trigger gets stored in a Row variable (you can check more variable from output) you can use it to extract any field/cell value from your rowy table. Example (in the above image) - I have a colum with id
welcomeMessage
welcomeMessage
, (x)Row.welcomeMessage will get the row data from welcomeMessage and you can then use it anywhere in your workfow.
