Events Log
Events Log is a read-only feed of the development events Rokt receives from your inputs. It lists each batch in the order Rokt received it, with the events inside it, and lets you open any batch or event to see its full details. The list refreshes when you click Refresh events, and new events can take up to 5 minutes to appear.
Events Log shows development data only. To see event volume and identity coverage for production and development, use Events Manager.

Event listDirect link to Event list
The list shows the most recent batches first. A batch is a single request that bundles data about one user, including who they are, what's known about them, and the events they triggered.
- Batch rows show when the batch was received, how many events it contained, and which input sent it, such as "Received 2 events from Web."
- Event rows sit under their batch and show the event name, the input, and the event type, such as page view (Screen View for Web inputs) or conversion (Custom Event for Web inputs).
Timestamp is when an event happened, as reported by the user's device, and when Rokt received a batch. Times are shown in your selected time zone.

| Section | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Summary | Total events in the batch, the input that sent it, and when it was received. |
| User attributes | Details about the user sent with the batch, such as first name or ZIP code. Rokt uses these to personalize offers. |
| User identities | Identifiers for the user, such as Email and Customer ID, that were sent with the batch. Rokt Click ID is always listed and shows Not received if the batch didn't carry one. An identifier that was sent with no value shows Unavailable. |
| Device identities | Details about the device or browser that sent the batch, such as IP address and user agent. These help Rokt improve match rates. |
