# Trigger and Event Types
Every trigger and event type, enumerated.
This reference page lists the trigger events Doc Holiday can react to and the connection types that support each one. See [Configure Triggers](/docs/publications/configure-triggers.md) for setup and [Connection Types](/docs/reference/connection-types.md) for the full Source catalog.

### Release prerelease control
The **Releases** trigger is available for the GitHub and GitLab Sources marked ✓ in the table. **React to pre-releases** is available only for GitHub repository and GitHub access-token Sources. It is a per-Source setting within a Publication and appears under **Releases** after that trigger is selected.
When **React to pre-releases** is selected, the Publication continues to react to prerelease publish events for that Source. When **React to pre-releases** is cleared, only full releases trigger work for that Source. For existing Publications, an absent or unchanged setting preserves the prior behavior. The Publication continues to include prereleases until an administrator clears **React to pre-releases**.
When **React to pre-releases** is cleared, Doc Holiday omits prereleases from release comparisons and chooses the newest stable, non-draft release available for the comparison. For setup steps, see [Configure Triggers](/docs/publications/configure-triggers.md).
Doc Holiday does not offer a scheduled trigger. For recurring cadence, use CI through [GitHub Action](/docs/automation-and-integrations/github-action.md).
