Workflow Triggers

Triggers are how workflows are launched in Victoria AI. They determine when and how your workflow should run, making them an essential component of building automations.

There are currently two types of triggers available in Victoria AI:

1. Chat Triggers

Every active workflow automatically comes with a Chat trigger. This means that you can initiate your workflow simply by chatting with Victoria. This is a flexible and fast way to run workflows whenever you need them.

Key points about Chat Triggers:

• Always available for every active workflow.
• Triggered manually via conversation with Victoria.
• Useful for on-demand actions and one-off processes.

2. Schedule Triggers

Schedule triggers allow you to run workflows automatically on a recurring basis. These are perfect for automations that need to happen at specific times or intervals.

Supported scheduling options include:

• Hourly
• Daily
• Weekdays
• At a certain time of day
• Monthly

When creating a schedule trigger, keep in mind:

• The workflow must be active for scheduled triggers to run. If it is paused or inactive, scheduled runs will not execute.
• If a workflow runs into an error or if the account runs out of tokens, the workflow and the associated trigger will be automatically paused. You can reactivate them via the dashboard after resolving the issue.

Tip: Always make sure your workflow is tested and active before relying on schedule triggers for critical automations.

By using Chat and Schedule triggers together, you can create a powerful combination of on-demand and automated workflows to run your business more efficiently.
