# Elements of the flow - Event triggered

The trigger element `Event triggered` starts a flow as soon as an event has been created in the organisation. Among other things, events are created automatically,  when an alarm has been triggered. Each alarm must be within an event.

With the exception of the name, which can be optionally assigned to the element, no configuration is necessary.
