I created a component in one weweb project. It contains a component trigger that I have successfully used in the workflows of component instances.

I decided to import my library of components from that project into another project of mine. When I create an instance of the component and then create a workflow, the component trigger is not an option.

Is this expected behavior?

Thanks!

Hi @carrano_dot_dev 👋

What do you mean by “the component trigger is not an option”? Can you show us how the original component is built and what it looks like in the imported library?

Just tried on my side with a button:

When I share the library, add it to another project and drop the component on the page, I can trigger a workflow that references that component event:

Is that what you had in mind?

Thanks for the detailed response. That indeed was my issue. I’m not sure what happened, but it seems to be working now.
