An event is used to give names to triggers (such as button presses or errors) that can be acted upon within a flow

What is it?

An event is the description of the action used for page navigation or processes. Events are triggered by:

Events can have parameters. They refine the event. When linking an event to a button you can select which parameters are actually transmitted together with the triggered event.


Parameters can be used in expressions with the expression system.event. This is a multivalued attribute, and will be filled with all parameters that were set to true when clicking on that button.

An expression to see if a parameter was set could be: ["parameterA"] SUBSET OF system.event

A list of parameters that default components set can be found here.
