# Admin: Triggers for Group Organization

Triggers run workflow or HTML automations when "triggered" by certain events.

Triggers do not work with any current nVoq client, and will be retired in a future release.

Triggers may be configured to run when users press the dictation hotkey or log in to the dictation client.

## Add a Trigger

1. Go to the **Organizations page** in nVoq Administrator.

1. To see group organizations in the list view **s****elect a division level organization in the organization menu on the left side of the page** and make sure the **View Organization Level menu** is set to group.![Organizations-view-groups](https://cdn.us.document360.io/03b5534a-5f9a-42ce-852d-08bf09105da4/Images/Documentation/Organizations-view-groups.png)

1. Find the group that you need to edit.  
Optionally, use the **Search field** at the top right of the page to search for text in any of the columns to find the division.

1. Once you find the group, click the **Actions menu** and select **Edit Organization**.![Organizations-edit-group](https://cdn.us.document360.io/03b5534a-5f9a-42ce-852d-08bf09105da4/Images/Documentation/Organizations-edit-group.png)

1. Select the **Triggers** tab.![Organizations-group-select-Triggers-tab](https://cdn.us.document360.io/03b5534a-5f9a-42ce-852d-08bf09105da4/Images/Documentation/Organizations-group-select-Triggers-tab.png)

1. Select an event upon which you would like a trigger to run.  
You can configure the trigger to run when:
  - the user presses the dictation hotkey (**Start of dictation**)
  - the user logs in to the dictation client (**Startup**)

**You can add a trigger to *more than one event*, but only one workflow or HTML automation may be added per event.** 

1. Enter the appropriate information in the text area for the type of shortcut you want to run upon the trigger event.  
There is a 65,000 character limit for this field.
  - You can run a **workflow automation** at the trigger event by pasting an AutoIt script in the text area.
  - You can also run an **HTML automation** at the trigger event.

1. Slide the **Enabled** setting above the text area to on (blue) if you would like to make the trigger active for the group.
  - Only *enabled* triggers will run when the selected event occurs.
  - You can disable the trigger at any time. Your trigger code will remain in the text field and can be re-enabled anytime.

1. Click the **Save** button at the bottom of the page.
