# Get Top Events

> Top events by frequency over the selected window.

Returns the most frequently fired events in the project, by total event count.

Pass `type=custom` to restrict results to custom events (events tracked via `formo.track(...)`). This replaces the previous `top_custom_events` endpoint.


## OpenAPI

````yaml GET /v0/top_events
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: Formo Public API
  description: >-
    REST API for managing Formo projects, analytics, alerts, boards, charts,
    contracts, segments, and AI chat.


    **Auth.** All endpoints require a workspace API key with the appropriate
    scopes (see `x-api-scopes`).


    **Response shape.** Successful responses return the resource directly (or `{
    data: [...], total, page, size, has_more }` for paginated lists). HTTP
    status carries success/failure; there is no envelope wrapping success
    bodies.


    **Errors.** Every non-2xx response uses the `Error` envelope: `{ error: {
    code, message, doc_url, param?, details? } }`. Branch on the
    machine-readable `code` (see `ErrorCode` enum) and follow `doc_url` to the
    matching section of the [errors
    reference](https://docs.formo.so/api/errors).


    **Idempotency.** Pass an `Idempotency-Key` header on POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE
    to make retries safe; the response is cached for 24 h and replayed on
    duplicate keys.

      description: >-
        Array of filter conditions, JSON-encoded in the query string. Entries
        use `{ field, op, value }` and are combined with implicit AND. For
        example, filter traffic referred by Google with
        `[{"field":"referrer","op":"contains","value":"google"}]`, or filter a
        page with `[{"field":"page","op":"eq","value":"/pricing"}]`. For `in` /
        `nin`, pass a non-empty array value such as `["chrome","firefox"]` or a
        pipe-delimited string such as `"chrome|firefox"`. Array string members
        cannot contain a literal `|`, which is reserved as the Tinybird
        membership separator. Optional one-level nested `filters` use the same
        canonical envelope and membership rule. On the user-aggregate endpoints
        (lifecycle, frequency) the same array also carries profile-family
        entries: profile metrics (net_worth_usd, volume, revenue, points),
        social identity fields, a lifecycle entry
        ({"field":"lifecycle","op":"in","value":"New|Power user"}), and resource
        entries using the stable fields chains.balance, apps.balance,
        tokens.balance, and labels.value with named qualifier properties
        (chain_id, app_id, token_address, scope, tag_id). The retired per-family
        parameters (socials, chain_filters, app_filters, token_filters,
        label_filters, profile_filters, lifecycle_filter) are rejected.

        default: page
      description: >-
        Controls how a `page` filter is interpreted. `page` (default) scopes
        metrics to activity on the filtered page. On `/v0/kpis`, `pageviews`
        counts only views of the filtered page, while `bounce_rate` and
        `avg_session_sec` are entry-page metrics for sessions that landed there.
        `session` preserves the legacy session scope: metrics include all
        relevant activity in any session that viewed the page. `sessions` and
        `visitors` are unchanged between scopes. This parameter only affects
        requests that include a `page` filter. It is distinct from
        `/v0/top_pages` `mode`, which selects the all, entry, or exit page-flow
        view.
