Field Annotations
Certain fields, properties or behaviors for events may require additional explanation which are noted here.
Additional Notes
Event: An action taken by a user or by the system that can be recorded. Events may include logging in, changing email addresses, and creating a new transfer.
Event Message: The record that an event occurred. The record is not available in real time. Event messages are sent to the FI and can be viewed to gain an understanding of user activity. Event messages contain both specific information about the event itself and relevant general information.
Created Events: When a resource is created, such as creating a wire transfer, an event message is generated right away. There may be additional steps needed until the resource is fully ready to be processed, such as requiring approvals.
Scheduled Transfers: An event message on a scheduled transfer does not trigger until the transfer is fully approved and ready to be executed at the arranged time. Simply creating the transfer and assigning it a time to occur does not mean it is scheduled. Transfers that do not require approvals can be scheduled as soon as a execution date is set.
User Session Duration: A user session begins when the user logs in. A user session ends when they log out, close their browser, or after a pre-determined amount of time.
sessionId and userLoggedIn: The sessionId in the event message is linked to information about a user’s session. The sessionId identifies the userLoggedIn event message created at the start of the user’s session, which includes the user’s browser and operating system. The session information stays consistent no matter which additional events may be triggered during the user’s session. After one session ends and a new session begins, event messages created during the new session have a sessionId that references a new userLoggedIn event message containing the latest session information.
