# Events

Events represent activity that has occurred within WorkOS or within third-party identity and directory providers. They are used to keep your app in sync with WorkOS data.
For more details on consuming events in your app, check out the [data syncing](/events/data-syncing) guide.

Refer to the [Events](/events) page for a full list of events that WorkOS emits.
