# Logged on to System (S)

This event executes a job when a system user logs into the system.

This includes:

- Login in the user interface.
- Login via API. There is no special API method for this event. Every API method creates a login. See [​API Methods for Event-Based Automations​](/v1/docs/api-methods-for-event-based-automations).

## General

| ​Name​ | Defines the name of the automation. The name is used to identify the automation in the system. The maximum length is 100 characters. |
| --- | --- |
| ​Description​ | Provides information about the automation. The description makes it easier to identify the automation in the system. |
| ​Event​ | Selects the type of event that, when combined with a job, forms the automation. Every time this event occurs, the system executes the dependent job. The job is defined in the ​[**Edit Event-based Job**](/v1/docs/edit-event-window) window. |
