# About the Workflow Job Trigger Tool

The Workflow Job Trigger Tool is used to create a Task Step that triggers a Task to run when responses from Workflow Jobs match criteria specified in one or a number of filters.

Initially the Create Workflow Job Tool is used to create a Workflow Job Step in a Task that publishes one or a number of web forms called Workflow Jobs to a web site folder on a specified Web Server when the Task runs. They contain controls that enable data to be manually entered or selected from a list of options by specified users / recipients.

When a Workflow Job Trigger Step is configured, the appropriate Workflow Job is selected which exposes the data fields that its web form contains. Filters may then be created on the data fields so that when specified criteria are met, the Task is triggered to run.

The Workflow Job Trigger Agent manages all Workflow Jobs and Workflow Job Trigger Steps for the Web Server on which it is installed. When a user completes a Workflow Job web form and submits it, all available Workflow Job Trigger Steps that use that Workflow Job will then attempt to match their filter criteria against those entered on the form by the user and where they match, those Tasks will be run.
