function triggerAsyncId

Usage in Deno

```typescript import { triggerAsyncId } from "node:node__async_hooks.d.ts"; ```
triggerAsyncId(): number
```js const server = net.createServer((conn) => { // The resource that caused (or triggered) this callback to be called // was that of the new connection. Thus the return value of triggerAsyncId() // is the asyncId of "conn". async_hooks.triggerAsyncId(); }).listen(port, () => { // Even though all callbacks passed to .listen() are wrapped in a nextTick() // the callback itself exists because the call to the server's .listen() // was made. So the return value would be the ID of the server. async_hooks.triggerAsyncId(); }); ``` Promise contexts may not get valid `triggerAsyncId`s by default. See the section on [promise execution tracking](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/async_hooks.html#promise-execution-tracking).

Return Type

number
The ID of the resource responsible for calling the callback that is currently being executed.
