# 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**  
```json
evt = {"event": "slot", "name": "departure_airport", "value": "BER"}
```

**Class**  `rasa.core.events.SlotSet`( _key_, _value=None_, _timestamp=None_, _metadata=None_)  
The user has specified their preference for the value of a `slot`.

### Restart a conversation

**Short**  
Resets anything logged on the tracker.

**JSON**  
```json
evt = {"event": "restart"}
```

**Class**  `rasa.core.events.Restarted`( _timestamp=None_, _metadata=None_)

### Reset all Slots

**Short**  
Resets all the slots of a conversation.

All Slots are reset to their initial values.

### Schedule a reminder

**Short**  
Schedule an intent to be triggered in the future.

**JSON**  
```json
evt = {
  "event": "reminder",
  "intent": "my_intent",
