# triggername

### `triggername` Property

The `triggername` property holds the **name of the trigger** that is currently resolving the variable.

#### Purpose

This property allows you to identify which **trigger** initiated the evaluation of the variable. It is particularly useful when the same variable is used across multiple triggers and you want to customize its behavior based on the trigger context.

#### Type

* **Type:** `String`
* **Example Value:** `"pageview"`

#### Use Case

You can use `this.triggername` to write conditional logic based on the trigger name:

```js
function() {
  var x = this.triggername; // "pageview"
  return window.location.href;
}
```

This enables advanced use cases such as:

* Returning different values depending on the trigger
* Logging or debugging trigger-specific behavior
* Ensuring consistent data output based on trigger context

By leveraging `triggername`, you gain greater control and transparency in multi-trigger setups.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.jentis.com/developer-guide/codeblocks/public-function-scope/triggername.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
