Isolate Trigger by Domain

Questions and Help

Is there a way to isolate snippets to only trigger in certain domains?

I know I can make the trigger something that is unlikely to be typed in reality, like $banana but if I could isolate it to the domain, then I could make snippets trigger within a regular typing workflow that wouldn't require remembering a snippet exists. Someone types "banana" when writing an email in gmail, snippet isn't triggered at all, the text remains the same, and life goes on. Someone types "banana" in Salesforce and that triggers a snippet that does banana stuff specifically for Salesforce.

I know I can sorta get around this by modifying behavior within the snippet once it is triggered, {if: contains({site: domain}, "lightning.force.com")=="yes"} but I'm looking to avoid the whole snippet triggered popup, sound, confetti situation.

Doable now? Doable in the future?

Hi Kevin,

If you go to this page, chrome://extensions/, Chrome extensions have a work feature that lets you select a number of sites the extension will work on, so you could add 5 sites that snippets work on, and they won't trigger on the rest. However, this can't be applied to individual snippets.

This isn't something you can set up on the Text Blaze dashboard right now, but if you would like this to be available in the future, I recommend writing a feature request here so users can vote on it.

Best regards,
Alexander

Got it. My issue with that is that I'd want to be able to trigger snippets in gmail so locking out the entire domain is a bit too broad, but I could see how that could be helpful to someone. I've put it in as a feature request and here's a link so it can be upvoted.
