Is there an example using Triggers?

[meltwater2000]

Just starting out using this library so sorry if it is obvious, but I am hoping to use a trigger.

Are there any examples of using triggers with the library since it isn't too clear how to check the status of the trigger once it is set.
Q1: Is there a function do this, or do we need to go down to the level of handling the POST requests? Not a major problem either way, but would be handy to know if I've missed something.

Q2: Would it be possible to create a "manual" trigger on the dashboard which presents a button, which when pressed activates the trigger (and then sends a POST command)? Would allow controls to be added.

NOTE: Edited request, as original question was not valid.

I've also tried using the feed object and the datastream object but get the same result.
I've even created a trigger directly on the dashboard using the same settings and it works.

Any idea what I may be doing wrong? Would really like to be able to get this to work if possible.

You will need to use a master API key in order to create triggers, it looks like you are using a device-level key.

Thanks for your reply, creating and using a master API key (didn't even know about them before) did work.
May be worth adding a note to the documentation to clarify why etc.
Thanks.
