Integrating Systems for Seamless Event-Based Automation with Triggers.do

In today's fast-paced digital landscape, efficiency is paramount. Businesses are constantly seeking ways to streamline operations, reduce manual effort, and respond quicker to critical changes. One of the most powerful approaches to achieve this is through event-based process automation, and that's where Triggers.do shines.

Start Workflows When Events Happen: The Power of Real-Time Automation

Imagine this: a new order is placed on your e-commerce website. Instead of a manual process to initiate fulfillment, send notifications, or update your CRM, an event signifying this new order automatically triggers a predefined workflow. That entire sequence happens instantly, powered by the event itself. This is the core concept behind Triggers.do – automatically initiating workflows based on events from any system.

Triggers.do empowers you to create responsive business processes that react to changes in real-time. No more waiting for scheduled jobs or manual interventions. When an event happens, Triggers.do is ready to kick off the necessary actions.

What are Event-Based Triggers?

At its heart, a trigger in Triggers.do is a defined condition or event that, when detected, initiates a specific action or workflow. Think of it as a sophisticated "if this, then that" for your business processes.

Key components of a Triggers.do trigger:

• Name and Description: Clearly identify the trigger's purpose.
• Event: The specific event that the trigger is listening for (e.g., order.created, status.changed, data.updated).
• Source: The system or application where the event originates (e.g., ecommerce-platform, crm-system, database).
• Filter: Crucially, you can define custom conditions to refine when the trigger activates. This ensures workflows only run when specific criteria within the event data are met (e.g., amount > 100, priority: 'high').
• Handler: The logic that processes the event and determines which workflow to initiate and what data to pass to it.

Here's a glimpse of how easy it is to define a trigger with Triggers.do using our intuitive platform and code examples:

import { Trigger } from 'triggers.do';

const newOrderTrigger = new Trigger({
  name: 'New Order Created',
  description: 'Triggers when a new order is created in the system',
  event: 'order.created',
  source: 'ecommerce-platform',
  filter: {
    condition: 'amount > 100',
    priority: 'high'
  },
  handler: async (event) => {
    // Process the event and start workflows
    return {
      workflowId: 'order-processing',
      data: event.data
    };
  }
});

This simple code snippet demonstrates how you can define a trigger that specifically looks for order.created events from your ecommerce-platform. Furthermore, it includes a filter so only orders with an amount greater than 100 and a priority of 'high' will initiate the specified order-processing workflow.
