How to run a Google Cloud Build trigger via cli / rest api / cloud functions?

Question

Is there such an option? My use case would be running a trigger for a production build (deploys to production). Ideally, that trigger doesn\'t need to listen to any change since

Answer 1

You should be able to manually trigger a build using curl and a json payload. For details see: https://cloud.google.com/cloud-build/docs/running-builds/start-build-manually#running_builds.

Given that, you could write a Python Cloud function to replicate the curl call via the requests module.
