Events

An event in W4 Build is an action that triggers a matrix, which in turn starts a group of builds. This page will help you debug and understand what has been triggered and built in your account.

An event can be triggered in three ways:

  1. Receiving a webhook or GitHub integration

  2. Cron execution

  3. Manual execution
