# Let a User Create Triggers

Turn on **Create triggers** in the agent's **Access → User Permissions**. Users can then create and edit the triggers they own on that agent — schedules, app triggers, and webhooks.

1. Open the agent and go to the **Access** tab.
2. Scroll to **User Permissions**.
3. Set **Create triggers** to **Allow**.
4. **Save**.

Users only ever manage their *own* triggers. Owners manage every trigger on the agent. Your triggers appear under **Mine**; Owners and Org Admins can also see other people's triggers under **Team**.

## Turning it back off

Set **Create triggers** to **Don't allow**. If Users already have triggers, Gumloop asks what should happen to them:

* **Keep running** — existing User-owned triggers keep firing. Users cannot create, edit, or activate triggers, but can still view, deactivate, and delete their own. Owners retain full trigger-management access.
* **Disable them** — they are switched off.

Owners can still see and re-enable those triggers afterwards. Allowing creation again does not automatically reactivate triggers that were deactivated.

## FAQ

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Can a User edit an Owner's trigger?">
    No, never — only their own.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Whose credentials run a User's trigger?">
    The trigger runs as the person who created it, using their connected accounts. See [Credentials](/core-concepts/credentials#in-agents).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can the agent create triggers by itself?">
    Yes, if **AI Managed** is on in the Triggers tab header. That is separate from this permission.
