# Events

## How events are used

Events are automatically generated via our monitoring systems. An event executes triggers that are configured to listen to that event.

## Event types

There are two available event types in Cronly:

* `cron` This event is for a cron job monitor.
* `certificate` This event is for an SSL certificate monitor.

## Event statuses

* `notification` This is for certificates only, to inform you of nearly expiring certificates.
* `alert` There is a problem with either your cron job or certificate.
* `cleared` The existing problem was cleared.
