Automation & Workflows

Trigger

An event or condition that starts a workflow, such as a received notification, scheduled time or manual request. A trigger determines when execution begins; it does not validate every input or authorize every downstream action. Delivery systems can repeat events, so starting a run is not proof that a new business event occurred.
