Start a workflow via Bitrise API without trigger map

Question & Answer
1

Can I start a workflow using the Bitrise API if that workflow isn’t defined in out trigger map? I was able to start our verify workflow fine until I removed this from our trigger map

- pull_request_target_branch: develop
  workflow: verify

Once I removed it, I started getting this error from the Bitrise API when calling /apps/{app-slug}/builds

trigger pattern did not match any defined mapping: no matching pipeline \u0026 workflow found with trigger params: push-branch: , pr-source-branch: CI/DF/add-github-actions-workflow, pr-target-branch: develop, tag: ","slug":"444f96b9af5c1aa6","service":"bitrise"
