# Trigger Creation Process

In your JENTIS DCP navigate to the Server Tag Manager: Trigger to create new triggers or adjust conditions in existing triggers. The basics that you need to define are:

* **Name**: This is the value that will appear in the selection in a Tag configuration. You should use a descriptive name here.
* **ID**: This technical reference can be used to reference a trigger explicitly, as this ID is unique per JTM account.
* **Description**: Feel free to give a Trigger a description to understand better the motivation to handle certain conditions.
* **State**: You can choose between predefined states, such as the "loaded document" (domload) or something pushed into the datalayer ("jts\_submit"). There is also the possibility to choose a CSS-selector with an action (SELECTORACTION) like `.button click`
* **Exclude Trigger:** These Triggers define that if they trigger, this trigger shouldn’t trigger. For example, a Google Analytics product view tag also includes the pageview. In the case of a product view, a page view and a product view event will be sent to the server. Therefore, the pageview trigger needs the exclude triggers, which exclude the product view, leading to unique events.
* **Conditions**: Here, you can select the parameters to check and how the value is validated. The following section describes this in detail.

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

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.jentis.com/jentis-dcp-elements/triggers/trigger-creation-process.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

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.
