We can run the automation by itself or by using riggers. Triggers enable you to run a task automatically in response to an event; for example, running the process when there is a change to a file or folder. For this project, we will use File Trigger to run the process when the input UserRequest.pdf file is created (placed in the input folder).

To do this, use the File trigger action from the Triggers menu (below the action panel). Provide the properties of the filename and set the Start the bot when the file is... field to created:

We will now test the automation using this Run with triggers option (shown in the preceding screenshot).
