About trigger systems
A trigger system monitors incoming data, captures it, and if certain conditions are met, fires an outcome action. The main building blocks used to define those events are called components.
Each trigger system defines how to pick out important events within your transaction and static data. It defines the patterns that you want to capture, and it defines how to package up gathered information and attach it to the triggered outcome.
Building trigger systems
You can build trigger systems in two ways.
*
You can define your own trigger systems in the Workspaces area of Detect using either the graph view or list view.
*
You can use trigger system libraries defined by IBM® Unica . You can import the trigger systems in these libraries and use them as delivered from IBM® Unica , or you can customize them.
What every trigger system needs
Trigger systems can be quite complex and sophisticated, but at a minimum every trigger system requires:
*
A Simple Event component
*
A data source
*
A container or pattern component
*
An action component
You can combine these components within a workspace to build a trigger system.
Data sources are described in the IBM® Unica Detect Administration Guide .
