Article Summary

An event is defined as an end-user interaction and contains contextual information to understand user behavior on an application. There are two types of events in Whatfix:

  • Default Events

  • Custom Events

Default Events: All events generated for Whatfix content and widget interaction.
Custom Events: User-defined events such as User Actions, events captured using Whatfix API, and more.

The following is a list of all the captured Whatfix-related (Default) events and their descriptions.

The Whatfix Events, both the Default and Custom events, appear in the dropdown only if you have performed the events at least once.

Expand the accordion to view a list of all the Whatfix-related (Default) events captured and their descriptions.
