# Event Emitted

> The Event Emitted trigger fires when a specific event is emitted from the monitored smart contract — select the event from the contract ABI.

The **Event Emitted** trigger alerts you whenever a particular event is logged by the monitored contract. Events are the standard way Solidity contracts signal state changes, making this trigger the most direct way to monitor your contract's activity.

## Use cases

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Token transfer tracking" icon="money-bill-transfer">
    Alert on every `Transfer` event to monitor all token movements in real time.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Ownership and role changes" icon="user-gear">
    Watch for `OwnershipTransferred` or `RoleGranted` / `RoleRevoked` events to detect any access control changes.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Pausing and emergency events" icon="circle-pause">
    Catch `Paused` or `Unpaused` events immediately so your team knows when circuit-breaker logic has been activated.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Configuration

<Steps>
  <Step title="Trigger Name">
    Enter a descriptive label, e.g. `Transfer Event Detected`.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Event">
    Select the event to watch from the dropdown. Events are loaded from the contract's ABI.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Include Transaction Value (optional)">
    Toggle **Include Transaction Value** to only fire when the transaction that emitted the event also carries a native token value meeting a condition:

    | Field                 | Description                                          |
    | --------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
    | **Operator**          | Comparison to apply: `=`, `!=`, `>`, `>=`, `<`, `<=` |
    | **Transaction value** | Native token amount in wei                           |

    Leave the toggle off to fire on every event emission regardless of value.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Severity">
    Choose the alert severity: `Critical`, `High`, `Medium`, `Low`, or `Info`.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Notification Channels">
    Select one or more channels to receive the alert.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Info>
  **Event Emitted** selects events from the monitored contract's ABI. To monitor events on a different contract address, use **Event Advanced** instead.
