Working with Triggers

To view a list of all triggers, click Triggers from Console's Navigation menu.

Trigger status

For each trigger, the Status column displays one of three possible trigger statuses:

Activated

The trigger is active and currently monitoring the event(s) it is configured to monitor

Activated with warning

The trigger is active but currently unable to monitor event(s). (Shown with ! icon near the trigger name)

  • This is generally caused by the trigger's inability to access the resource it is configured to monitor (file, folder, email account, or database)

  • Correct this status by confirming connectivity to the specified resource or by editing the trigger's properties (if necessary)

Deactivated

The trigger is currently set not to monitor events

About using the "Delete" monitoring option in Database Trigger

When creating a database trigger, you have the option to set the trigger initiation to whenever database records are deleted:

Database Trigger’s Delete monitor only works with logical delete. This means that the table you choose has to have a column that determines whether the row was deleted or not (false/0 - not deleted, true/not 0 - deleted). The Delete monitor works by recognizing that the IsDeleted field has changed to something different than 0.
