**Hello Magento Friends,**

Magento 2 provides a robust event-driven architecture that allows developers to observe and respond to various system activities. One such event is the multi-shipping order creation event, triggered when a customer places an order using the multi-shipping checkout method. This method is ideal for stores with customers who [**ship items to multiple addresses**](https://magecomp.com/blog/configure-multiple-addresses-shipping-magento-2/) in a single checkout process. By observing this event, you can implement custom actions or modifications to the order creation process.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through observing the multi-shipping order creation event in Magento 2.
## Steps to Observe the Multi-shipping Order Creation Event in Magento 2:
**Step 1:** First, we need to create an **“event.xml”** file inside our extension at the following path:
**app/code/Vendor/Extension/etc/event.xml**

Now add code as follows
```
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Event/etc/events.xsd">
    <event name="checkout_type_multishipping_create_orders_single">
        <observer name="multishipping_create_ordersdata" instance="VendorExtensionObserverGetOrderData"/>
    </event>
</config>
```

**Step 2:** First, we need to create a **“GetOrderData.php”** file inside our extension at the following path.
**app/code/Vendor/Extension/Observer/GetOrderData.php**

Then add the code as below
```
<?php
namespace VendorExtensionObserver;
use MagentoFrameworkEventObserver;
use MagentoFrameworkEventObserverInterface;

class GetOrderData implements ObserverInterface
{
    public function execute(Observer $observer)
    {

        $order = $observer->getOrder();

        $orderData = $order->getData();

        return $this;
    }
}
```

## Conclusion:
Observing the multi-shipping order creation event in Magento 2 provides a powerful way to add custom functionality to your store’s multi-shipping checkout process. By leveraging Magento’s event-driven architecture, you can enhance the customer experience and improve your store’s operational workflows seamlessly.
