how to run an existing BTT trigger using a keyboard sequence

Configuration Help & General Discussion
1

Hello, I created many BTT triggers triggered by BTT trackpad taps and swipes. Is there also be able to trigger them with key sequences ?
Example: if I want to open chrome either using 3 finger swipe right on the trackpad or pressing the ⌃ modifier key twice.
thanks in advance for your time and help

In general "named triggers" are what you'd use for this.
You can convert existing triggers to use named triggers like this:

Named triggers are shown in the "Auatomations, Named & Other Triggers" section.

Then you can execute them via the "Trigger named trigger" action:

Alternatively you can use Apple Script to trigger by the triggers UUID:

tell application "BetterTouchTool"
    execute_assigned_actions_for_trigger "2F34005D-4537-464D-94E9-A7F42DA39DF1"
end tell
