Triggers

A trigger files a task for you each time an event arrives: a call to a webhook, a GitHub event, an email or a Slack mention. Triggers live under Automation, and only your organization's Owners and Admins see them.

  • How triggers work — what a trigger is, what happens to each event it receives, and how its health moves between Active, Degraded, Failed and Paused.

For work that should happen on a timer instead of in answer to an event, see Schedules. The tasks a trigger files work like any other: see Tasks.
