4.9.1. Event Data Payload

In this chapter, you'll learn how subscribers receive an event's data payload.

Access Event's Data Payload#

When events are emitted, they’re emitted with a data payload.

The object that the subscriber function receives as a parameter has an event property, which is an object holding the event payload in a data property with additional context.

For example:

} from "@medusajs/framework"

export default async function productCreateHandler({
  event,
}: SubscriberArgs<{ id: string }>) {
  const productId = event.data.id
  console.log(`The product ${productId} was created`)
}

export const config: SubscriberConfig = {
  event: "product.created",
}

The event object has the following properties:

This logs the product ID received in the product.created event’s data payload to the console.
