Create a Release Trigger

Release triggers are an automated way to create and run a release. When you create a trigger for a release template and enable it, Release will execute the script associated with the trigger at a specified interval.

A good example of a trigger is one that polls a source code management system like GitHub for a change and starts a release as a result.
