Rule triggers options

Setup, Configuration and Use Scripts & Rules
1

Hi,

According to the documentation, rule triggers must be:

  • Item(-Event)-based triggers: They react on events on the openHAB event bus, i.e. commands and status updates for items
  • Time-based triggers: They react at special times, e.g. at midnight, every hour, etc.
  • System-based triggers: They react on certain system statuses.

But I found this in the bindings documentation:

rule "Dash button pressed"
    when
        Channel "amazondashbutton:dashbutton:ac-63-be-xx-xx-xx:press" triggered
    then
        println("The Dash button has been pressed")
end

Is it possible to use a Channel?

Thanks,

Yes, but it looks only one binding is using it up to now:
