Actions & Triggers
Enture Triggers are event-driven. These triggers are targeted by the Enture Edge based on threshold values. Each trigger can be assigned multiple actions. When the triggers are activated based on the threshold value and wait time, the attached actions are executed. Triggers can be attached to parameters, and whenever the parameter meets the trigger conditions, the trigger gets activated.
Enture Actions are tasks that the system can execute. These actions are generally attached to triggers to create automation.
- Multiple actions can be attached to a trigger.
- Multiple triggers can be attached to any parameter.
