# List triggers

> Returns all triggers for the org, optionally filtered by campaign.

List triggers — returns {types, schemas, results}

**Permission:** Requires `automations` **or** `campaigns`; sending `type: "lesson"` additionally requires `lessons`. Denials read `Manage Automations or Campaigns`.

**Response shape:** `data` is a composite object — `results` alongside `schemas`, `types` and related keys. This is **not** a paginated envelope; `page` has no effect and there is no `count`.

**How a trigger relates to a campaign.** `campaign_id` in the body decides scoping and is **optional**:

- **Omit it** and the trigger is scoped to your team directly — this is the automation case.
- **Pass a default (simple) campaign** and it is likewise scoped to the team.
- **Pass a regular campaign** and the trigger is scoped to the org and user instead, with no `team_id` stored on it. That is deliberate — storing a team on a trigger inside a shared campaign would produce a campaign only some members can see.

If the campaign id cannot be resolved within your team scope, the request is narrowed rather than rejected, so a wrong id yields an empty or unexpected scope instead of an error.

        List triggers — returns {types, schemas, results}


        **Permission:** Requires `automations` **or** `campaigns`; sending
        `type: "lesson"` additionally requires `lessons`. Denials read `Manage

        **Response shape:** `data` is a composite object — `results` alongside
        `schemas`, `types` and related keys. This is **not** a paginated
        envelope; `page` has no effect and there is no `count`.


        **How a trigger relates to a campaign.** `campaign_id` in the body
        decides scoping and is **optional**:


        - **Omit it** and the trigger is scoped to your team directly — this is
        the automation case.

        - **Pass a default (simple) campaign** and it is likewise scoped to the
        team.

        - **Pass a regular campaign** and the trigger is scoped to the org and
        user instead, with no `team_id` stored on it. That is deliberate —
        storing a team on a trigger inside a shared campaign would produce a
        campaign only some members can see.


        If the campaign id cannot be resolved within your team scope, the
        request is narrowed rather than rejected, so a wrong id yields an empty
        or unexpected scope instead of an error.

        Team scope for the request, as one or more team ObjectIds. The brackets
        are required: PHP keeps only the last value for a repeated plain key, so
        `teams=A&teams=B` silently resolves to B alone. On requests with a JSON
        body you may send `teams` (no brackets) in the body instead.


        **Values that are not valid ObjectIds are silently ignored** — a
        mistyped team ID behaves as if no team was sent. See the [teams section
        of the API conventions guide](/guides/api-conventions#team-scoping).
