Can snaplogic listen to external events

Hey, there can snaplogic listen to external events?

Hey Stewart, Thank you for the suggested approach. The Triggered Task definitely worked for me.
However for the custom snap that I am working on, its not working as expected. I tried the following:
I created/implemented a snap that outputs a binary where in the execute method I created a HttpServer with appropriate context & handler. The idea being - when this snap is used in a pipeline, it will stay alive as long as the the listener is required (similar to what the SAP IDoc Listener does - https://docs-snaplogic.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SD/pages/1438551/SAP+IDoc+Listener)
The issue is that the snap finishes execution within few seconds.
Any Idea how can I keep it alive? (until someone stops/suspends the pipeline)
Thanks!

You should ask this question in the section DevelopingSnaps
