* Action: A string that is used to define the user action. The first word should always describe the action or aspect: clicks should be `click`, activations should be `activate`, creations should be `create`, etc. Use underscores to describe what was acted on; for example, activating a form field would be `activate_form_input`. An interface action like clicking on a dropdown would be `click_dropdown`, while a behavior like creating a project record from the backend would be `create_project`
* Label: Optional. The specific element, or object that's being acted on. This is either the label of the element (e.g. a tab labeled 'Create from template' may be `create_from_template`) or a unique identifier if no text is available (e.g. closing the Groups dropdown in the top navbar might be `groups_dropdown_close`), or it could be the name or title attribute of a record being created.
* Property: Optional. Any additional property of the element, or object being acted on.
* Value: Optional, numeric. Describes a numeric value or something directly related to the event. This could be the value of an input (e.g. `10` when clicking `internal` visibility)
* Value: Optional, numeric. Describes a numeric value (decimal) directly related to the event. This could be the value of an input (e.g. `10` when clicking `internal` visibility)
