OnTrigger Policies
CentraSite provides a special event type called an OnTrigger event. Policies that you create for this event type can be run “on demand” from the CentraSite Control user interface. Anyone who has View permission on an OnTrigger policy can execute the policy on demand.
When you run a policy on demand, CentraSite applies the policy directly to each object instance in the registry that:
Is of a type specified in the policy's object scope.
Satisfies all conditional criteria specified by the policy (that is, Name, Description, and/or Classification criteria that the policy specifies).
Is an object on which the user running the policy has View permission. If the policy is organization-specific, the policy is applied to only the objects that satisfy the preceding criteria and belong to the organization specified by the policy. If the policy is system-wide, the policy is applied to all objects in the registry that satisfy the preceding criteria.
Administrators often use OnTrigger policies to assign permissions to a specified set of objects instead of manually setting permissions on individual objects using the user interface.
