Hello Magento Friends,
In this Magento 2 tutorial, we will learn How to Trigger an Event on Save Specific System Configuration Section in Magento 2.
Events in Magento 2 serve as hooks or triggers that allow developers to execute custom code at specific points in the application’s workflow. When a particular event occurs, registered observers can capture and respond to it. In the context of system configuration, we can take advantage of events to execute custom logic when a specific section is saved.
In Magento 2, you can trigger an event when saving a specific system configuration section by utilizing observers and events. Let’s find out how exactly you can accomplish it.

Steps to Trigger an Event on Save Specific System Configuration Section in Magento 2:
Step 1: First, we need to create a “system.xml” file at the following path.
app\code\Vendor\Extension\etc\adminhtml\
Then add the code as follows
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 |
<?xml version="1.0"?> <config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Config:etc/system_file.xsd"> <system> <tab id="vendor" translate="label" sortOrder="100"> <label><![CDATA[Custom Setting]]></label> </tab> <section id="generalsetting" translate="label" type="text" sortOrder="1" showInDefault="1" showInWebsite="1" showInStore="1"> <label>General setting</label> <tab>vendor</tab> <resource>Vendor_Extension::generalconfig</resource> <group id="access_token" translate="label" sortOrder="50" type="text" showInDefault="1" showInWebsite="1" showInStore="1"> <label>Access Token</label> <field id="token" translate="label" type="text" sortOrder="20" showInDefault="1" showInWebsite="1" showInStore="1"> <label>Access Token </label> </field> </group> </section> </system> </config> |
Step 2: After that, we need to create an “events.xml” file at the following path.
app\code\Vendor\Extension\etc\adminhtml\
Then add the code as given below
Note – In the below event, replace section id “generalsetting” with your section id.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Event/etc/events.xsd"> <event name="admin_system_config_changed_section_generalsetting"> <observer name="admin_system_config_changed_section_general_setting" instance="Vendor\Extension\Observer\Triggerconfig"/> </event> </config> |
Step 3: After that, we need to create an Observer “Triggerconfig.php” file at the following path.
app\code\Vendor\Extension\Observer\
Now add the below-mentioned code

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 |
<?php namespace Vendor\Extension\Observer; use Magento\Framework\Event\ObserverInterface; use Magento\Framework\Event\Observer as EventObserver; use Magento\Framework\App\RequestInterface; use Magento\Framework\App\Config\Storage\WriterInterface; class Triggerconfig implements ObserverInterface { private $request; private $configWriter; public function __construct( RequestInterface $request, WriterInterface $configWriter ){ $this->request = $request; $this->configWriter = $configWriter; } public function execute(EventObserver $observer) { $writer = new \Zend_Log_Writer_Stream(BP . '/var/log/config-save.log'); $logger = new \Zend_Log(); $logger->addWriter($writer); $logger->info('trigger system configuration tab'); $params = $this->request->getParam('groups'); $token = $params['access_token']['fields']['token']['value']; /*Replace your section group name and field name to get values*/ $logger->info('token : '.$token); return $this; } } ?> |
Step 4: Once all files are created in your Magento, you need to run Magento upgrade, compile and deploy commands as follows.
|
1 2 3 4 5 |
php bin/magento setup:upgrade php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f php bin/magento setup:di:compile php bin/magento cache:clean php bin/magento cache:flush |
Output:
Once you save the system configuration event will be triggered to generate a log file and you can customize our blog code as per your requirement.
