# Triggers

{% hint style="info" %}
Looking for documentation on the old Triggers system? [They have moved.](/legacy/triggers.md)
{% endhint %}

Triggers allow you to create reward actions tied to specific player events, activities, campaigns, or claims. Triggers are configured through the LootLocker Web Console and can be invoked through the Game or Server API, Squire (Discord Bot), or External Reward Campaigns.

By associating rewards with a Trigger, you can centralize reward logic and reuse it across multiple systems. Triggers can be configured with claim limits, segments, and rewards to support a wide variety of player engagement scenarios.

### Use Cases

* Reward players for reaching milestones such as entering hidden areas or defeating bosses
* Create achievements and one-time rewards
* Encourage repeated player engagement through recurring rewards
* Reward players for watching advertisements or completing campaigns
* Grant rewards when players launch the game for the first time
* Create claimable rewards through Squire (Discord Bot)
* Run External Reward Campaigns through shareable links and QR codes
* Power rewards for events, newsletters, creator campaigns, and community activations
