# Events

Conversations in Rasa are represented as a sequence of events. This page lists the event types defined in Rasa Core.

Note

If you are using the Rasa SDK to write custom actions in python, you need to import the events from `rasa_sdk.events`, not from `rasa.core.events`. If you are writing actions in another language, your events should be formatted like the JSON objects on this page.

## General Purpose Events

- **Set a Slot**  
  Short: Event to set a slot on a tracker  
  JSON:  
  ```
  evt = {"event": "slot", "name": "departure_airport", "value": "BER"}
  ```

- **Restart a conversation**  
  Short: Resets anything logged on the tracker.  
  JSON:  
  ```
  evt = {"event": "restart"}
  ```

- **Reset all Slots**  
  Short: Resets all the slots of a conversation.  
  JSON:  
  ```
  evt = {"event": "reset_slots"}
  ```

- **Schedule a reminder**  
  Short: Schedule an intent to be triggered in the future.  
  JSON:  
  ```
  evt = {"event": "reminder", "intent": "my_intent", "entities": {"entity1": "value1", "entity2": "value2"}, "date_time": "2018-09-03T11:41:10.128172", "name": "my_reminder", "kill_on_user_msg": true, }
  ```

- **Cancel a reminder**  
  Short: Cancel one or more reminders.  
  JSON:  
  ```
  evt = {"event": "cancel_reminder", "name": "my_reminder", "intent": "my_intent", "entities": [{"entity": "entity1", "value": "value1"}, {"entity": "entity2", "value": "value2"}], "date_time": "2018-09-03T11:41:10.128172", }
  ```

- **Pause a conversation**  
  Short: Stops the bot from responding to messages.  
  JSON:  
  ```
  evt = {"event": "pause"}
  ```

- **Resume a conversation**  
  Short: Resumes a previously paused conversation.  
  JSON:  
  ```
  evt = {"event": "resume"}
  ```

- **Force a followup action**  
  Short: Instead of predicting the next action, force the next action to be a fixed one.  
  JSON:  
  ```
  evt = {"event": "followup", "name": "my_action"}
  ```

## Automatically tracked events

- **User sent message**  
  Short: Message a user sent to the bot.  
  JSON:  
  ```
  evt = {"event": "user", "text": "Hey", "parse_data": {"intent": {"name": "greet", "confidence": 0.9}, "entities": []}, "metadata": {},}
  ```

- **Bot responded message**  
  Short: Message a bot sent to the user.  
  JSON:  
  ```
  evt = {"event": "bot", "text": "Hey there!", "data": {}}
  ```

- **Undo a user message**  
  Short: Undoes all side effects that happened after the last user message.  
  JSON:  
  ```
  evt = {"event": "rewind"}
  ```

- **Undo an action**  
  Short: Undoes all side effects that happened after the last action.  
  JSON:  
  ```
  evt = {"event": "undo"}
  ```

- **Log an executed action**  
  Short: Logs an action the bot executed to the conversation.  
  JSON:  
  ```
  evt = {"event": "action", "name": "my_action"}
  ```

- **Start a new conversation session**  
  Short: Marks the beginning of a new conversation session.  
  JSON:  
  ```
  evt = {"event": "session_started"}
  ```
