# Web Trigger

Web Trigger turns EMILY.RPA into a web server, allowing users to trigger specified skills from other devices by loading the webpage in a browser. This requires a static IP address or hostname, and you must ensure that the requesting device can reach the local machine through the firewall.

### Configure the Web Server

Click "**Web Trigger**" on the "**Auto Triggers**" page.

Click the "**Adjust Parameters**" icon at the bottom of the interface to open the "**Web Port**" dialog. The web server defaults to port 3100. If it conflicts with another server, you can change it — for example, to 3102 — then click "**OK**".

On the "**My Skills**" page, click the skill you want to trigger to open the menu, then select the "**Add to Web Trigger**" option to add the skill to the web service.

### Test the Webpage

After completing the setup and entering fully automated mode, users can access the URL from any computer on the network using a standard browser such as Chrome / Firefox / Safari to select a skill and trigger it.
