An event is any action in a website/App that is performed by the customer while interacting with your business.
Think about the time you wanted to buy a product, your customer journey will be as follows - You visited the brand's website and the website homepage loaded. You went ahead and scrolled the page and clicked on the product you wanted to buy. You checked for a few offers and added the product to the cart. Later, you received an email which informed you about the ongoing offer for the product you wanted to buy, you clicked on that email and were directed to the buy now page. You completed the payment and the order was placed.
In the above scenario, the following would be considered events:
"Page load" when you visit the website
"Track" when you scroll down the page to look for the product you wanted to buy
"Click on the product" When you click on the product
"Add to cart" when the product was added to the cart
"Click on the email link" when you see the offer in the email and click it
"Page load" when you are directed to the buy page
"Order placed" when you are completed with the payment

Transformation
Transformations in Lemnisk is the process of transforming the user/event attributes in the destination-compatible format. Custom events are required to be created for performing a transformation on them since the transformation is set up at the destination level. It is a one-time activity for tracking a particular event for a destination. Since it can be created at an individual destination level, the same event can be tracked on different platforms.
For example: "productviewed" may be transformed as "viewedproduct" for Facebook, "viewed" in Google Ads, etc.
To create a transformation -
Go to > Data Pipeline > Destination
Select any destination and navigate to Transformation
Click Add Transformation
Select the events for transformation from the list of Events
Test any event by selecting the event in the Events field below the code snippet and clicking Run Test
Click Validate and Save to save your transformation
You can delete the transformation using the button Delete Transformation placed in the left corner of the window.
