# Add events

You can send events with the `MBAutomation` like this:

```
MBAutomation.addEvent(context, "event")
```

You can specify 2 more parameters, both optional: `name` a name that will be displayed in the MBurger dashboard and a dictionary of additional `metadata` to specifymore fields of the event

```
MBAutomation.sendEvent(context, "event",
                      	name : String? = "name",
                      	metadata: String? = "metadata")
```

Events are saved in a local database and sent to the server every 10 seconds, you can change the frequency setting the `eventsTimerTime` property.
