If By workspace was chosen, select the workspace for which you want to receive the events.
In the Stream details section, follow these steps.
1. Select the workspace where you want to save the eventstream.
2. Enter a name for the eventstream. The Stream name is automatically generated for you.
Then, select Next at the bottom of the page.
