How do I see all MySQL events that are running on my database?

Question

I have a MySQL database. I am running two MySQL EVENTs. I need to get rid of one. I don't remember it's name. What do I do?

Answer 1

its simple SHOW EVENTS lists all of the events in the current schema

To see events for a specific schema, use the FROM clause. For example, to see events for the test schema, use the following statement:

SHOW EVENTS FROM test;

Answer 2

The information_schema.EVENTS table is where to start.

USE information_schema;

DESCRIBE EVENTS;
