If This Then That: Action Triggers Are More Than Just Notices

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ptdKkeGuBU

This program explores the capabilities of Evergreen’s Action Triggers. We’ll look at all the components that make Action Triggers work, where they live in the database and ways to customize existing triggers and add new ones. We’ll start with a simple customization to a basic notification trigger, and look at all the components that come into play to create the resulting notice. We’ll also cover the variety of other tasks Action Triggers perform in Evergreen. Finally, we’ll look at tips for adding new triggers, testing, and monitoring them, and explore some creative uses for Action Triggers in Evergreen.

Michelle Morgan, NOBLE.

We’ve uploaded the conference schedule to Sched. You can use the app (or web site) for free to mark which sessions you are interested in to keep track of your own personal schedule. This will also help the conference organizers see which sessions are likely to need the largest rooms in case we need to make last-minute room switches.
