The docs are not optimally worded and definitely conflate datasets and dataset events, possibly leading to this confusion. See [here](https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow/stable/authoring-and-scheduling/datasets.html). > Fetching information from a Triggering Dataset Event > > A triggered DAG can fetch information from the Dataset that triggered it using the `triggering_dataset_events` template or parameter. Do datasets trigger DAGs, or do dataset _events_ trigger DAGs? The title of this section and its text seem to disagree. The answer is: dataset events trigger DAGs. A one word change would vastly improve the precision of this section: > A triggered DAG can fetch information from the Dataset event that triggered it using the `triggering_dataset_events` template or parameter. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
