Creating a trigger

  • from sources external to the workflow, either Orchestrator or Integration Service
  • from within the workflow, using trigger activities

Click the corresponding Edit button, make the intended changes, and then click Update in the Edit Trigger window.

  4. Click Update for the changes to take effect.
