# Workflow Trigger: Membership Category Started
The Membership Category Started trigger will activate a Workflow when a contact begins or interacts with a specific category in a membership. In this article, we will go over how to use this trigger to track specific membership products and send additional resources once a category has been started.
* Add the trigger with filters for the product and category and save
* Here is an example of a course structure and where a category is located in a membership product: (See Screenshot Below)
* Add a Send Email action and use the category custom values to make it more personal.
* Add an internal notification using custom values to set a timestamp and provide details that refer to the category.
*Please Note: You can use the If/Else action to create branches based on the category involved if you use more than one category as a trigger. (See Screenshot Below)*

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://help.mypipeline.co.in/workflow-triggers/workflow-trigger-membership-category-started.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
