[FEATURE] I want to select emit channels from sources / workflows as workflow triggers in the UI

[dylburger]

Currently, if I use $send.emit() to emit events from a workflow, I don't see those emitted events when adding a workflow trigger. I'd like to be able to select emitted events as a workflow trigger from the UI.

In case one is curious about this, while you cannot currently create event subscriptions within the UI, subscriptions that you create via the API are visible in the UI and events can be used to test and develop workflows, for example:

This feels like it should be not that hard given the API already supports it and from a UI perspective there's no real configuration.

This is now supported!

In the trigger selection menu, choose the Pipedream app.

Select the Other Workflow Events trigger:

If you've created a subscription via API or emitted events from a workflow using $.send.emit (see docs), you should see that workflow in the list.

Let us know if that works for y'all!

In the trigger selection menu, choose the Pipedream app.

Select the Other Workflow Events trigger:

If you've [created a subscription via API](https://pipedream.com/docs/api/rest/#listen-for-events-from-another-source-or-workflow) or emitted events from a workflow using `$.send.emit` ([see docs](https://pipedream.com/docs/destinations/emit/#using-send-emit-in-workflows)), you should see that workflow in the list. Let us know if that works for y'all!

I can't see this particular trigger anymore in the UI:

is this still supported? Or do I have to create the trigger in a different way?

I tried to create a new subscription with an action in the emitting workflow and using the IDs of each workflows I want to tie together, but only get a cryptic error (record not found):
