Event Types¶
The Event Types section lets an administrator manage the list of system events that can be used in gamification features (e.g., reward rules, points/experience tracking). Each event type defines a readable caption, a technical event identifier, and a user key that indicates which user entity the event applies to.
Steps¶
-
Navigate to Gamification->Event Types page to view the list of existing event types.
-
(Optional) Use the filters in the table header to find an event type:
- Caption
- Event
- User Key
- Description
-
Click 🔍 Search to apply filters or ✖ Clear to reset them.
-
To add a new event type, click Add in the top-right corner of the page.
-
In the Add Event form, fill in the required fields:
- Caption — the display name shown in the list.
- Event — the system event identifier (technical key).
- User Key — defines which user field is used for the event (for example,
id_userorid_student). - Description — internal description of the event type.
-
Click Submit to save the event type, or Cancel to discard changes.
-
To edit or remove an existing event type, open the row actions menu and choose:
- Edit
- Remove
