System Trigger

UiPath.Core.Activities.SystemTriggerV2

Description

Monitors a specified system-wide key and/or mouse event.

It can be used either inside a Trigger Scope activity or by itself within a trigger workflow. When used by itself, the activity has one more property in the Properties panel, namely Enabled.

Properties

Common
  • DisplayName - The display name of the activity.
Input
  • TriggerInput - Specifies the system-wide action to monitor. The following options are available: Mouse, Keyboard. Mouse and Keyboard can both be selected simultaneously.
Misc
  • Enabled - If set to False, the trigger starts but does not fire any events. It can be enabled later at runtime by using the Enable Local Trigger activity. This field supports only Boolean values. The default value is True.
  • Private - If selected, the values of variables and arguments are no longer logged at Verbose level.
Options
  • BlockEvent - Specifies whether the event is blocked from acting on the indicated element. If False, the event is executed against the element. If True, the event is blocked and can be later replayed within the activity handler, by using the ReplayUserEvent activity.
