## Overview

This topic explains how to use LaunchDarkly's trigger feature with Splunk Observability Cloud. For example, you can create an alert in Splunk Observability Cloud that toggles a flag's targeting on or off if a performance metric drops below a certain threshold.

In order to complete this topic, you must meet the following prerequisites:

* You must have a feature flag with a trigger. To learn more about creating triggers, read [Creating flag triggers](/home/releases/triggers-create).
