Live events
Go to Live in the workspace nav to see a real-time stream of everything happening in your workspace.
What you see
A scrolling feed of events, newest first:
| Event type | Example |
|---|---|
| track | order_completed fired by user_456 |
| identify | user_456 identified with traits (plan: “pro”) |
| page | user_456 viewed /products/widget-x |
| delivery.sent | Email sent to user_456 for campaign “Holiday Sale” |
| delivery.delivered | WhatsApp delivered to user_789 |
| delivery.opened | Email opened by user_456 |
| delivery.clicked | Link clicked by user_456 (URL: /checkout) |
| delivery.bounced | Email bounced for user_101 (hard bounce) |
Each event shows:
- Timestamp
- Event name
- Contact (user ID or anonymous ID)
- Properties (expandable)
- Source (SDK, API, webhook, internal)
Filtering
Filter the live stream by:
- Event type — track, identify, page, delivery, or custom
- Contact — search by user ID or email
- Channel — WhatsApp, Email, SMS, Push
- Campaign — filter to events from a specific campaign
- Outlet — set the workspace location chip, or type
outlet:loc_<id>in the search bar to narrow the stream to a single outlet (every event is stamped withlocation_idby the analytics consumer)
Metrics bar
Above the event stream, a real-time metrics bar shows:
- Events/second — current ingestion rate
- Sends in-flight — messages currently being delivered
- Active contacts — contacts who fired an event in the last 5 minutes
Use cases

signup_completedevent?” — search by contact ID - Campaign monitoring: filter to a campaign and watch delivery confirmations roll in
- Integration verification: after setting up a Shopify webhook, check that order events appear
- Demo: show stakeholders real-time engagement during a campaign launch
