For Trigger

Permission Description
ADMINISTER Users with this permission can perform most administration tasks, except managing users, importing and exporting data, and editing system email settings

To watch for the events in trigger, user should have ADMINISTER permission.

For Action

The account you use for establishing the connection needs the basic permissions to access the entities in action except for the two actions that are Add User to Group and Remove User from Group. These two actions need the admin permission.
