VIDEO: How a Trigger Behaves

Usage

Instead of working with checkboxes, the trigger field can execute a business rule and carries information about the user who triggered and the time and date of the triggering. 

Button text

EN: [Field Name EN]
DE: [Field Name DE]

Examples

• Content suppliers assign a layer to contents where copyright information is missing. This layer holds a trigger called "Get Copyright Details," which triggers a Business Rule that updates copyright details like source and original title and usage restrictions from IPTC metadata. The content creator can trigger the copyright update when the content is used in campaigns to save credits on stock platforms.

• Content creators can assign a layer to the content they plan to use in campaigns. This layer holds a trigger field that starts a business process that executes a reverse image search to check if a competitor uses this image in a campaign. The content creator can trigger the image check only for the preferred imagery.

• The AI-powered business process for image tagging assigns a layer on import that holds all automatic tags. Those tags require human review and cleanup. After manual cleanup and removal of wrong tag assignments, a trigger field starts a business process that copies the reviewed and correct tags into the real metadata layers used from the search.

• The trigger field can be used to track the status of completed tasks. Assuming you are using fieldset for change requests you can add a trigger field for the person who fulfills the request. The responsible finds the change requests and triggers the "completed" state. This will log time and person in charge. Additional business rules could not be added to execute the "triggered" state.

Use in the business rule as path & field id

Path: 
autoTagging.assignMatches.triggeredOn
autoTagging.assignMatches.triggeredBy

Field: 
assignMatches.triggeredOn
assignMatches.triggeredBy

Returned field value

.triggeredOn returns date time, which must be formatted
.triggeredBy returns a UserId only, especially useful for comparison (e.g., show content triggered by Alex)

The label of the Trigger field should clearly indicate what the user triggers. The trigger button will also have this name.
