Events model

The basic event model consists of the following properties:

• id

• name

• description

• typeid

• startTime

• endTime

The event model is flexible and can be extended by adding ad hoc properties or by using the Type Management service to define a structure for different types of events.

Ad hoc properties

Ad hoc properties provide additional context about a particular event that is not covered by standard event properties. Because these are specific to an event, you must provide data type information along with the value for each property. Ad hoc properties can also reference enumeration sets defined with Type Management. Refer to Events integration with types.

Relationships

Events support relationships targeting other events or entities. The relationship target describes the nature of the relationship ("Parent", "Child", "Related"). Relationships can be defined per event or at the Event Type level, using the Type Management service.
