Matrix Version: 5.4.1.0
It’s a pretty basic problem but I can’t see what I’m doing wrong.
I have 2 triggers - the first clones a text file asset - the second makes the cloned text file live.
Except it doesn’t.
The 2nd trigger fires fine. I can set the file contents, take other actions if I like - but it won’t make the text file live (or apply any other status).
Any thoughts appreciated as always.

Do the text files have workflow applied to them? If so you’ll need to exclude them from workflow to get the triggers to function the way you want.
If I create a text file under the root node - the trigger works fine.
If I clone a text file - the trigger fails.
Got it - needed my trigger event to be “Asset Cloned” and not “Asset Created”
I did think that meant the trigger would fire on the asset that was BEING cloned - and not the new cloned asset.
The manuals state:
If this event is selected, the Trigger will be fired when an asset is cloned.
That sounds to me like the asset being cloned will fire the event - not the newly created clone.
Anyway - thanks for your help Jason.
