Usage info

The function_executed event is a unique event in that you cannot subscribe to it like other events associated with the Events API. Instead, your app must have a function declared that is executed as part of a workflow invoked by a trigger. These events are generated exclusively in the context of a workflow run.

In order for this event to execute, the following must be true about the app:

• It is subscribed to the Events API
• It has a function defined that is part of a coded workflow or a step in Workflow Builder. For apps built with the Bolt SDK, read about custom functions here. For apps built with the Deno SDK, read about custom functions here.
• It has a trigger that invokes the workflow
