Page Builder events

The pattern for consuming Page Builder events in JavaScript, such as within the preview.js component, is to import Magento_PageBuilder/js/events and use the events.on() method to bind to the event you want to handle, as shown here:

define([
    'Magento_PageBuilder/js/events',
], function (events) {
    'use strict';

    events.on("event:name", function (args) {
        // do logic
    });
});
Copied to your clipboard
define([
    'Magento_PageBuilder/js/events',
], function (events) {
    'use strict';

    events.on("event:name", function (args) {
        // do logic
    });
});

The following table lists the Page Builder events you can bind to and handle within your content type.
