What are events?
In general, events reflect some action having been taken, whether as a direct result from an API request or something else.
Gigs logs one or more events in your project when:
An API request is made, or a scheduled change or renewal is actioned.
Unscheduled events reflecting something that happened outside of an API request. For example a subscription was activated or a payment succeeded.
What details can I see in Events
Included with each event is the created timestamp and the entire event object payload.
How can I use events?
Events are useful for understanding the sequence and scope of changes or updates to a given resource. This is particularly important for developer debugging and support investigations.
Where can I see events in Dashboard?
The complete list of events for a project can be found in the Events tab. This list can be filtered by resource or event type. The list is sorted from newest to oldest.
You can also see the most recent 10 events related to a specific resource’s detail page (e.g. subscriptions, payments, users, SIMs, etc.) in a section called “Recent Activity” that will be at the bottom of the page. If there are more than 10 events related to a given resource, you can click on the “View all” link, which will take you to the Events tab with a filter applied for that particular resource.
How frequently is the log and dashboard updated?
The log is updated in near real-time as requests come in. The dashboard visualizations refresh every few minutes to show the latest data from the logs.
Is my API usage data private and secure?
Only authenticated users can see Recent Activity logs, and only data for projects they have access to.
Can I create customized views of my API data?
Not at this time. However, please reach out to us for your specific needs and we’ll be happy to help.
