# Events

There's no need to deploy expensive third-party analytics tools to track user behaviour in [Gravity](https://usegravity.app) as it comes with client-side event tracking and analytics built in.

## Track Events

To track an event, simply import the `Event` component and call the `create` method with an event `name` and optional `metadata`. This will log a new event in your database.

{% hint style="info" %}
You can toggle the server-side logging using the **`STORE_EVENT_LOGS`** env var.
{% endhint %}

```javascript
import { Event } from 'components/lib';

export function Upgrade(props){

  async function upgradePlan(){
   
     Event.create({ name: 'upgrade', metadata: { plan: 'Unicorn' });
 
  };
}
```

## Standard Events

The following events are already configured for you:

* signin
* selected\_plan
* completed\_onboarding
* cancelled\_onboarding
* upgraded
* invited\_user
* closed\_account

## Event Analytics

You can get a birds eye view of all of your event data in [Mission Control](/mission-control/events.md). Here you can see:

* the total number of triggers for each event 
* events charted over time
* a list of all events
* individual event detail

{% hint style="info" %}
Need to see events by a specific user? Search for their email address in the event listing page.
{% endhint %}
