 </Steps>
+
+## Deploying triggers
+
+These are 2 categories of triggers you can deploy on behalf of your end users:
+- [App-based event sources](#app-based-event-sources)
+- [Native triggers](#native-triggers)
+
+<Callout type="info">
+Refer to the [full Connect API reference](/connect/api/#deploy-a-trigger) to list, retrieve, delete, and manage triggers for your user
+</Callout>
+
+### App-based event sources
+- Listen for events that occur in other systems: for example, when [a new file is added to Google Drive](https://pipedream.com/apps/google-drive/triggers/new-files-instant) or when [a new contact is created in HubSpot](https://pipedream.com/apps/hubspot/triggers/new-or-updated-contact)
+- Deploying these triggers requires that your customers first connect their account using [Pipedream Connect Managed Auth](/managed-auth/quickstart), since the triggers are deployed on their behalf using account
+- Refer to the [quickstart above](#deploying-a-source) to get started 
+
+### Native triggers
+- You can also deploy native triggers, which don't require any authentication from your end users, so **you should skip the account connection process when configuring these triggers**
+- Because these triggers don't use a connected account from your end users, APIs to deploy and manage them are slightly different (see below)
+
+#### HTTP Webhook
+Generate a unique HTTP webhook URL for your end users to configure in any other upstream service.
