In MxHub, there is a possibility to create custom events that can be applied in DeskClient.
In this example the manual start and end of a recording is triggered by user defined events.
To do this, proceed as follows:

1. Define User-defined Events in the Management Client
→ ManagemetClient → Rules and Events → User-defined Events
- Right Click → Add User-defined Event…
- Name it: Recording Start
- Create a second User-defined Event
- Name it: Recordig Stop
2. Definde a Rule for the manuell Start of Recording
→ ManagementClient → Rules and Events
- Right Click → Add Rule

You can use the User defined Events for every action not only for recording!
