How can I set a different trigger for branches vs. master?

Question

There are some builds in Bamboo that I'd like to trigger differently depending on if it is a branch vs. master.

For example, really long-hauls test builds that should trigger nightly or weekly on master, but only manually on any given branch.

How can this be done?

Thanks Rafael, I suppose I should've been more explicit.  I want to set the default trigger for branches to be different than the branch...  Using the above method works, but must be done manually for each branch created (or auto-created).

Hello Mark,

Thank you for your question.

In Bamboo, please go to "Plan configuration" and select your branch under "Branches" located below "Stages & jobs".

Bamboo will display 4 tabs: Branch details, Source repository, Notifications and Variables

Under "Branch details", please look for Trigger type >> Change trigger and select the trigger type of your choice.

If you find this answer useful, I would kindly ask you to accept it so the same will be visible to others who might be facing the same issue you have inquired.

Thank you for your understanding.
