GitHub Event

Events are used to execute GitHub Action. They are used to trigger a workflow.  

GitHub supports various types of events

• GitHub triggered events are: push, pull_request, public
• The scheduled event allows triggering a workflow at a scheduled time (schedule)
• Manually events can manually trigger workflow runs. To trigger specific workflows in a repository, use the workflow_dispatch event (external systems)
• Webhooks events can configure workflows to run when a webhook event is generated on GitHub
