Hi,

Greetings to you!

A trigger will fire automatically whenever the record is inserted or being updated until it has been deactivated. You can skip triggers by checking certain conditions so that it doesn't affect any data of salesforce database.

You can add a dummy checkbox field that is not visible to anyone and let the trigger bypass the record if the checkbox is checked or true. You can also use Custom Setting to bypass trigger. Please refer to the below links which might help you further.
