Triggers allow you to invoke Cloud Functions functions at a specific event. For example, a timer invokes a function on a user-defined schedule. Here is an example of a timer invoking the function in Cloud Functions every minute.

In addition to timers, the following types of triggers are available in Cloud Functions:

  • Trigger for Message Queue

    Create a trigger for a Message Queue and process messages using a function.

  • Trigger for Object Storage

    Create a trigger for Object Storage that invokes a function when you create, move, or delete a bucket object.

  • Trigger for Container Registry

    Create a trigger for Container Registry that invokes a function when you create or delete Container Registry Docker images or Docker image tags.

  • Trigger for Cloud Logging

    Create a trigger for Cloud Logging that invokes a function whenever entries are added to the log group.

  • Trigger for Yandex IoT Core

    Create a trigger for a Yandex IoT Core device, registry, or broker topic and process message copies using a function.

  • Trigger for budgets

    Create a trigger for budgets that invokes a function when threshold values are exceeded.

  • Trigger for Data Streams

    Create a trigger for Data Streams that invokes a function when data is sent to a stream.

  • Email trigger

    Create an email trigger that invokes a function when an email arrives.
