This month, we've built A LOT of cool stuff. A new side menu, a new way to trigger your Job and a bunch of useful Tasks to name but a few. Here are our favourites…

New navigation

Invoke Trigger

Invoke Trigger

Until now, you could trigger Jobs from events, webhooks or on a schedule (e.g. CRON/interval). We've now added a fourth way, invokeTrigger(), that lets you invoke a Job manually without having to specify an event.

HTTP endpoints: trigger Jobs from any webhooks

HTTP endpoints

Often you want to trigger your Jobs from events that happen in other APIs. This is where webhooks come in.

Now you can easily subscribe to any APIs that support webhooks, without needing to use a Trigger.dev Integration. This should unlock you to create far more Jobs than was previously possible.

Task Library full of lots of new Tasks

Task library

We now have a dedicated docs page called Task Library where you can easily find and learn about built-in tasks to use in your Jobs. And here are some brand new Tasks:

  • io.backgroundPoll() – poll a URL until it returns a certain value
  • io.sendEvents() – send multiple events at a time
  • io.random() – identical to Math.random() but numbers aren't regenerated on resume or retry
  • io.waitForRequest() – wait for a request to be made to a specific URL, and then return the request body as the task result
  • io.waitForEvent() – wait for an event to be sent in the middle of a Job Run

Run notifications

Run notifications

We've made it much easier to respond to your Job Runs completing or failing. You can now easily subscribe to run notifications and perform additional work.

There are two ways of subscribing to run notifications which you can read more about here.
