  • At least one action must be linked to a trigger during its creation for the trigger to be created.
• In the [Auto Scaling policy] tab, you can select an Auto Scaling policy to execute when an event occurs.
  • The Event is delivered to the Auto Scaling Group upon occurrence, and the policy is executed repeatedly according to the cooldown time set in the policy until the event ends.
  • For Auto Scaling policies, policy execution stops when the Event ends.
  • To specify an Auto Scaling policy as an action, select an Auto Scaling Group by clicking on it and then select the desired policy.
