Triggering with Trigger Key

Trigger Keys allow for a pipeline to be triggered through an API call. This will allow the pipeline to be triggered remotely from a local machine or to integrate into a CI/CD pipeline.

A more advanced option for running the pipeline is using a trigger key. Generate a trigger key to run the pipeline remotely from a local machine or integrate it into a CI/CD pipeline.
