# Clipboard Changed

Trigger `doc.on.clipboard`

trigger.clipboard

Fires when the clipboard content changes. This trigger monitors the macOS pasteboard and activates whenever you copy new content — whether it's text, an image, or other data types.

This is useful for building clipboard managers, text transformation pipelines, or workflows that react to copied content. The trigger provides the text content, content type, and available pasteboard types.
