# Eventarc Trigger

Eventarc Trigger in Google Cloud is a resource that allows you to route events from various sources to Cloud Run, Workflows, or other event-driven services. It enables building loosely coupled, event-driven architectures by automatically delivering events based on defined filters and conditions.
