# Edit AWS CodeBuild triggers
<a name="triggers-edit"></a>

You can edit a trigger on a project to schedule a build once every hour, day, or week. You can also edit a trigger to use a custom rule with an Amazon CloudWatch cron expression. For example, using a cron expression, you can schedule a build at a specific time on every weekday. For information about creating a trigger, see [Create AWS CodeBuild triggers](build-triggers.md#trigger-create).

## Edit AWS CodeBuild triggers (console)
<a name="triggers-edit-console"></a>

Use the following procedure to edit triggers using the AWS Management Console.

**To edit a trigger**

1. Open the AWS CodeBuild console at [https://console.aws.amazon.com/codesuite/codebuild/home](https://console.aws.amazon.com/codesuite/codebuild/home).

1. In the navigation pane, choose **Build projects**.

1. Choose the link for the build project you want to change, and then choose the **Build triggers** tab.
**Note**  
By default, the 100 most recent build projects are displayed. To view more build projects, choose the gear icon, and then choose a different value for **Projects per page** or use the back and forward arrows.

1. Choose the radio button next to the trigger you want to change, and then choose **Edit**.

1. From the **Frequency** drop-down list, choose the frequency for your trigger. If you want to create a frequency using a cron expression, choose **Custom**.

1. Specify the parameters for the frequency of your trigger. You can enter the first few characters of your selections in the text box to filter drop-down menu items.
**Note**  
 Start hours and minutes are zero-based. The start minute is a number between zero and 59. The start hour is a number between zero and 23. For example, a daily trigger that starts every day at 12:15 P.M. has a start hour of 12 and a start minute of 15. A daily trigger that starts every day at midnight has a start hour of zero and a start minute of zero. A daily trigger that starts every day at 11:59 P.M. has a start hour of 23 and a start minute of 59.

1.  Select **Enable this trigger**. 

**Note**  
You can use the Amazon CloudWatch console at [https://console.aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/](https://console.aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/) to edit source version, timeout, and other options that are not available in AWS CodeBuild.

## Edit AWS CodeBuild triggers programmatically
<a name="trigger-edit-code"></a>

CodeBuild uses Amazon EventBridge rules for build triggers. You can use the EventBridge API to programmatically edit the build triggers for your CodeBuild projects. See [Amazon EventBridge API Reference](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eventbridge/latest/APIReference/) for more information.
