The 3 Ways to Trigger Teammates

AI Teammates can be triggered in 3 ways:

1. Time-triggered tasks: Tasks that are prescheduled to execute on a specific time and day. They can be on a repeating interval.

2. Event-triggered tasks: Tasks that are executed whenever a specific event occurs (powered by webhooks).

3. On-demand tasks: Instruct your Teammate to perform on-demand tasks via chat interfaces. Kubiya currently supports the following chat interfaces: Slack, Microsoft Teams.

These are determined when setting up your use case, and if you want a specific use case or Teammate to be able to receive multiple of these triggers, it must be specifically configured that way.
