# Job Trigger

The Job Trigger component is designed to facilitate users in triggering the Python(On demand) Job through the pipeline. To configure this, users need to set up their Python (On demand) job name in the meta-information of the Job Trigger component within the pipeline. The in-event data of the Job Trigger component will then be utilized as a payload in the Python(On demand) Job.

***Please go through the below given demonstration to configure Job Trigger component in the pipeline.***

### Configuring Meta Information of Job Trigger component: <a href="#meta-information-tab" id="meta-information-tab"></a>

* Create a pipeline that generates meaningful data to be sent to the out event, which will serve as the payload for the ***Python (On demand)*** job.
* Connect the ***Job Trigger*** component to the event that holds the data to be used as payload in the ***Python (On demand)*** job.
* Open the meta-information of the Job Trigger component and select the ***Python(On demand)*** job from the drop-down menu that needs to be activated by the Job Trigger component.

*<mark style="color:green;">**Please Note:**</mark>* The data from the previously connected event will be passed as ***JSON objects*** within a **JSON** Array and used as the payload for the ***Python (On demand) Job***. For more information on the ***Python(On demand)*** job and its functionality, please refer to this link: [***Python (On demand) Job***](/data-pipeline-5/getting-started/homepage/create/creating-a-new-job/python-job-on-demand.md).
