Within a Document or Folder Smart Rule, what triggers the rule to run?

• A. Event
• B. Action
• C. Filter
• D. Response

Answer: (A)

In a Document or Folder Smart Rule, what starts the rule is an Event—the occurrence of a defined action on a document or folder, such as a new document being added or a status change. When that event happens, the rule runs and then evaluates the defined Filters to decide whether the conditions are met. If the filters pass, the configured Actions are executed. The Action is what the rule does, and the Filter narrows when the rule should apply. A Response isn’t used as the trigger in this context. So, the trigger is the Event.
