# TriggerClient: Overview

> TriggerClient is used to create a client that connects to the Trigger.dev platform

A [TriggerClient](/documentation/concepts/client-adaptors) is used to connect to a specific [Project](/documentation/concepts/projects) by using an [API Key](/documentation/concepts/environments-endpoints).

```ts Example
export const client = new TriggerClient({
  id: "my-webapp",
  apiKey: process.env.TRIGGER_API_KEY!,
});
```

<Warning>
  The `TriggerClient` should only ever be used in a server-side environment. It is not safe to use
  in a browser environment because it exposes your API Key.
</Warning>

## Constructor

### [TriggerClient()](/sdk/triggerclient/constructor)

Creates a new TriggerClient object.

## Instance properties

### id

A string that uniquely identifies the client.

### [store](/sdk/triggerclient/store)

An object to access namespaced **Key-Value Stores** in and outside of your Jobs.

## Instance methods

### [sendEvent()](/sdk/triggerclient/instancemethods/sendevent)

Sending an event triggers any Jobs that are listening for that event (based on the name). Use [eventTrigger()](/sdk/eventtrigger) on a Job to listen for events.

You can call this function from anywhere in your code to send an event. The other way to send an event is by using [io.sendEvent()](/sdk/io) from inside a `run()` function.

### [sendEvents()](/sdk/triggerclient/instancemethods/sendevents)

Sending multiple events triggers any Jobs that are listening for those events (based on the name). Use [eventTrigger()](/sdk/eventtrigger) on a Job to listen for events.

You can call this function from anywhere in your code to send multiple events. The other way to send multiple events is by using [io.sendEvents()](/sdk/io) from inside a `run()` function.

### [getEvent()](/sdk/triggerclient/instancemethods/getevent)

The `getEvent()` method gets the event details for a given eventId.

### [cancelEvent()](/sdk/triggerclient/instancemethods/cancel-event)

The `cancelEvent()` method cancels an event that is scheduled to be delivered in the future.

### [cancelRunsForEvent()](/sdk/triggerclient/instancemethods/cancel-runs-for-event)

The `cancelRunsForEvent()` method cancels the job runs (yet to be executed) that are triggered by a given eventId.

### [cancelRunsForJob()](/sdk/triggerclient/instancemethods/cancel-runs-for-job)

The `cancelRunsForJob()` method cancels all runs for the specified job (yet to be executed).

### [getRuns()](/sdk/triggerclient/instancemethods/getruns)

The `getRuns()` method gets runs for a Job.

### [getRun()](/sdk/triggerclient/instancemethods/getrun)

The `getRun()` method gets the details for a given Run.

### [defineJob()](/sdk/triggerclient/instancemethods/define-job)

The `defineJob()` method defines a new Job.

### [defineHttpEndpoint()](/sdk/triggerclient/instancemethods/define-http-endpoint)

The `defineHttpEndpoint()` method defines a new HTTP Endpoint.

### [defineDynamicTrigger()](/sdk/triggerclient/instancemethods/define-dynamic-trigger)

The `defineDynamicTrigger()` method defines a new Dynamic Trigger.

### [defineDynamicSchedule()](/sdk/triggerclient/instancemethods/define-dynamic-schedule)

The `defineDynamicSchedule()` method defines a new Dynamic Schedule.

### [defineAuthResolver()](/sdk/triggerclient/instancemethods/define-auth-resolver)

The `defineAuthResolver()` method defines a new Auth Resolver.

### [on()](/sdk/triggerclient/instancemethods/on)

Use the `on()` method to listen for run notifications across all Jobs.
