Event Reference

Use out-of-the-box events to enable component interaction within Lightning Experience or Salesforce1, or within your Lightning components. For example, these events enable your components to open a record create or edit page, or navigate to a record.
If you fire one of these events in your Lightning apps or components outside of Salesforce1 or Lightning Experience:
  • You must handle the event by using the <aura:handler> tag in the handling component.
  • Use the <aura:registerEvent> or <aura:dependency> tags to ensure that the event is sent to the client, when needed.
