Triggering Like Regular Snippets

You can paste rich snippets like the others by creating a new workflow with a Snippet Trigger. Connect it to an Arg and Vars Utility with the name of the snippet as the Argument. Finally, connect it to a Call External Trigger Output referencing restore_snippet in this workflow.

There is an example you can copy at the bottom of the Workflow canvas.
