How Triggers Work
When a trigger condition is met, it sends a message to the associated agent. The agent then processes this message similarly to how it handles user inputs in the ChatUI, capable of generating responses, using tools, or invoking AI teammates as needed.Most triggers send the agent a message specified in the trigger’s content
(e.g., email or message content). However, some triggers like “Scheduler” send
a predefined instruction to the agent.

Monitoring Trigger-Initiated Threads
Threads initiated by triggers appear in the sidebar’s thread list.Unread threads are indicated by a white dot next to the thread title. Opening
the thread marks it as read and removes the dot.

Pausing Triggers
Users have the ability to pause and resume agent triggers as needed:- Locate the agent’s trigger within the chat UI on the right-hand side.
- Click on the trigger to toggle between paused and live states.
Each trigger has a colored bubble next to it:
- Green bubble: The trigger is live and active. 2. Red bubble: The trigger is paused and inactive.

Sharing Agents with Triggers
When sharing an agent that has a trigger function:- Other users cannot directly “Chat” with the agent.
- They can only “Clone” the agent to use it.
An AI agent with a trigger function that is closed source (not clonable by
others) can only be private. To share such an agent, either make it open
source (clonable) or remove the trigger function.
