SRAM Compatibility

Can I use SRAM X7 trigger shifters with a SRAM Rival rear and front derailleur? I’m doing my first build and I’m using a flat bar on a road bike. Prior web searches lead me to believe that X-series shifters with a Rival derailleur would not be an issue, but I just watched the SRAM Tech YouTube video and it states that SRAM Road Derailleurs are designed for exclusive use with double-tab technology and are not compatible with other SRAM shifting systems. The video is from 2009, so has SRAM shifting technology changed since then?
